Donaco’s casino in Vietnam opens, Cambodia’s still shut
Donaco International Ltd said the temporary closure of its casino operations at the Aristo International Hotel in Lao Cai, Vietnam, has now been lifted, the company announced.
Aristo has now officially reopened, but will operate on a limited basis because it said the border with China where most of Aristo’s patrons originate from has remains closed, it noted
“We are optimistic that the COVID-19 situation will continue to improve in the region Aristo operates in and this is a positive step towards the resumption of normal operations,” the company said.
The Vietnamese government last week announced that non-essential businesses – except for discotheques and karaoke lounges – may reopen; several sports activities and events with large gatherings may be allowed; and seating capacity limits on flights, trains, ships, and buses etc can be lifted.
The Company’s Star Vegas Casino operations in Poipet, Cambodia, however, have remained temporarily closed in line with Government restrictions. The Cambodia government’s had issued announcement mandating the temporary closure of all casinos from April 1 until further notice.
Donaco’s largest business is the Star Vegas Resort & Club, a successful casino and hotel complex in Poipet, Cambodia, on the border with Thailand. The firm said the closure has a material impact on its business.
No new cases have been reported in Cambodia, with only one patient out of 122 is being treated. Although the situation seems to be fading, the government is still calling on people to remain cautious while warning about the possibility of a second wave of the pandemic.
