Genting plans park in Johor

22 January 2010 , By The Star

Genting Bhd plans to build a theme park and hotel in Iskandar Malaysia in Johor, said head of strategic investments Datuk Justin Leong.

The company, Asia’s largest publicly-traded casino operator, is exploring the project through its plantation unit, Genting Plantations Bhd.

Genting Plantations is already working on a joint-venture project to develop a high-end shopping complex in Johor.

Leong made these comment in an e-mailed statement to Bloomberg News.

“The building of a theme park and hotel in Johor is part of a broader development plan that the Genting Group has for its operations in Iskandar Malaysia.

“The development plan will be subject to a detailed market feasibility study and is contingent to the successful development of the Johor Premium Outlets, the retail shopping project that the group is developing with US-based Simon Property Group Inc.” — Bloomberg
