This was stated by the country\u2019s Prime Minister, <strong>Lawrence Wong<\/strong>, during the groundbreaking ceremony for the expansion of the <strong>Marina Bay Sands<\/strong> resort complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wong recalled how the launch of the gaming market became a turning point for Singapore\u2019s economy, particularly in the context of the current regional slowdown. According to him, the key to success lies in \u201ca constant drive for progress and the refusal to take advancement for granted.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cProgress is not predetermined. It\u2019s not predestined. It\u2019s not inevitable. It takes discipline. It takes effort. It takes belief. And it takes hard work,\u201d the Prime Minister emphasized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the legislative initiatives for integrated resorts in Singapore were broadly similar to earlier proposals in Thailand, Wong noted that in Singapore, they became part of a strategic transformation of the tourism sector, representing a bold step forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added: \u201cThere was also a bold commitment from Las Vegas Sands, a major investment underpinned by confidence in Singapore and Singapore\u2019s future. We both had to take risks. It was not predetermined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis outcome that we enjoy today, 20 years later, could not have been foretold. But we together made it happen, and I\u2019m glad that this partnership has flourished.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These remarks came against the backdrop of significant changes in the country: construction is underway in Singapore on a new ultra-luxurious resort and entertainment complex worth $8 billion. The project is set to expand the company\u2019s regional presence and reinforce its long-term commitment to the Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sands Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, <strong>Robert Goldstein,<\/strong> commented: \u201cWith its opening in 2010, our founder Sheldon G. Adelson embarked on a journey in Singapore with Marina Bay Sands and the people of Singapore that promised to change the face of tourism in the region.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFifteen years later, we have delivered on these ambitions and more. Marina Bay Sands is the world\u2019s most successful integrated resort in history, and the gold standard in the industry. It has been truly incredible to witness Mr. Adelson\u2019s vision come to life, and we are proud to carry his legacy forward with today\u2019s groundbreaking ceremony for our new development here.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have every intention of delivering a product that will be the envy of the hospitality industry and usher in a new era of luxury tourism in Singapore.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/sbceurasia\">Telegram channel!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amid the stagnation of Thailand\u2019s gaming industry, Singapore is showing steady growth and promising prospects.
