Genting Malaysia is one of Asia’s top gaming companies. It operates Resorts World Genting and has additional venues in the UK, the Bahamas and the U.S. It is behind Resorts World Las Vegas, which is currently the subject of a lawsuit by Wynn Resorts over concerns that the architecture of the venue is too similar to that of Wynn’s property on the Vegas Strip. In actuality, the only way the two venues could be confused is after a heavy night of binge drinking.
