Three times, Dennis Uy’s PH Resorts Group tried and failed to find an investor for its Emerald Bay casino resort in the Philippines.

Would-be saviours included Tiger Resort Leisure & Entertainment Inc, which operates Okada Manila; Enrique Razon’s Bloomberry Resorts; and Philippine developer AppleOne Group. Those deals all came and went.

The lender has just announced it will sell the real estate under the idle development, putting the future of Emerald Bay in question.

According to the Philippine Inquirer, Chinabank Chairman Hans Sy said “a couple of interested parties” are looking at the 30-acre beachfront tract. He did not identify potential buyers.

Now, with the expiration of its leaseback deal with PHR, Chinabank is ready to dispose of the real estate.

“We gave Dennis a chance to redeem,” Sy told reporters. “Of course, they asked for an extension. But we already gave them more than a year. It’s already in our name.… We’re not renewing anymore.”

The construction of the integrated resort (IR) MGM Osaka kicked off on Thursday, April 24th, in Osaka, at a location adjacent to the 2025 World Expo venue.

“This would be Japan’s first IR. We’d like to bring economic growth to Osaka and Japan,” Osaka Governor Hirofumi Yoshimura stated during the groundbreaking ceremony hosted by the project’s operator, Osaka IR KK, according to Kyodo News.

The total investment is projected at up to JPY1.6 trillion ($10 billion), positioning it among the world’s most expensive integrated resorts. According to planning documents, the facility will feature 2,500 hotel rooms, a shopping mall, a 3,500-seat theater, spa and fitness center, convention facilities, and diverse dining and entertainment options. Japanese law limits the gaming floor to 3 percent of the total indoor space. The project has already secured a $3.4 billion loan as part of its financing.

What I’ve read is that construction is supposed to commence in 2025. I saw a post or two online claiming that it started in November 2024, but nothing official has been confirmed. I didn’t find anything myself. I know it’s supposed to be in the CBD. Does anyone have a master plan of the CBD to see where the Oblisco Capitale Tower is supposed to be?

Mirage to Hard Rock Hotel Transformation Update 03 31 25

Marina Bay Sands’ total bill to the Singapore Tourism Board was recently updated to include an additional US$1 billion for it’s upcoming expansion project.

The reasons behind this additional cost were covered under a Second Supplemental Agreement under which the company committed to assume liability for the cost of the land premium associated with the purchase of an additional gaming area to that previously agreed. This also includes other land premiums resulting from changes to the expansion project’s design and floor area allocations.
