Asian interest for Las Vegas Sands Corporation
Rob Goldstein is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Las Vegas-headquartered company Las Las Vegas Sands Corporation. He is in talks with a major country in Asia regarding the development of a new gambling-friendly resort. The potential development could be similar to the 2,560-room Marina Bay Sands venue he has run in the city-state of Singapore since 2010.
Las Vegas Sands Corporation last year inked a $6.25 billion deal to exit the land-based casino market of the United States. The company still holds a 70% stake in Macau casino behemoth Sands China Limited.
Goldstein is looking to build a casino resort in a country of scale. He is hoping it will be a major country. His company had previously expressed an interest in bringing an integrated casino to Thailand and to the Japanese city of Yokohama.
Goldstein's company Las Vegas Sands Corporation plans to use the 'integrated resort' model for any new developments. The model has worked well in Macau, Singapore and Las Las Vegas. They are talking to three states and in Asia.
