Genting Malaysia to reopen two resorts but Resorts World Genting operations still suspended

Genting Malaysia has revealed it will reopen two of its four Malaysian hotel resorts, Resorts World Kijal and Resorts World Langkawi, this Thursday 18 June 2020. But Resorts World Awana and flagship property, Resorts World Genting, will “remain closed until further notice,” according to an update posted on the group’s website.

All four locations have been shuttered since Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin first implemented a nationwide Movement Control Order on 18 March.

As previously reported by Inside Asian Gaming, there is still no immediate opening date in sight for Resorts World Genting, despite the Prime Minister last week announcing the instigation of a COVID-19 recovery plan, known as a Recovery Movement Control Order, until 31 August 2020.

Genting Malaysia also announced last month that completion of its new outdoor theme park would also be delayed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
