Malaysians likely to continue gambling despite Omicron surge

KUALA LUMPUR: Resorts World Bhd bagged two awards at the 15th World Travel Awards gala ceremony held in Shanghai last Thursday.

Its flagship Genting Highlands Resorts won the Asia’s Leading Casino Resort award for the fourth year in a row. It was also named the Asia’s Leading Family Resort.

“We are grateful and proud to be recognised by our industry peers and professionals from over 160 countries,” its president Lee Choong Yan said in a statement yesterday.

Dubbed by the Wall Street Journal as the Oscars of the travel industry, the World Travel Awards is regarded as one of the accolades a travel organisation can achieve.

The statement said Genting Highlands Resort, with its myriad attractions ranging from casino to theme parks, plus international shows and concerts, was a positive contributor to the tourism industry of Malaysia.
