Century Entertainment International Holdings Ltd has decided to once again delay the reopening date of its casino at the new venue in Dara Sakor district, Koh Kong province, due to the continued impact of the ongoing COVID-19 community outbreak in Cambodia, reported IAG.

This is the third time that the reopening has been postponed, from February to March, then again to late April. As the result, the firm did not specify the exact date of the reopening. (Read more)

According to Century Entertainment on Friday, due to strict lockdown measures in place across the region, there has been no significant progress on the re-opening preparation work on the new casino including systems testing and provision of training to casino staff.

“The new casino will continue with the remaining preparation works and strive for re-opening as soon as the current COVID-19 pandemic situation in Cambodia eases and personnel are able to move in the city,” it added.

Century Entertainment’s casino was originally located at the Sunshine Bay Hotel in Sihanoukville. However, the firm decided to move to the Long Bay project in Dara Sakor after the previous contract expired in September last year. (Read more)
