Speaking to reporters, the CEO of the corporation, Grant Bowie, said the company is now targeting the launch of the new project for the third quarter of the year, according to local broadcaster TDM.
The company had previously planned to unveil the project during the second quarter of the year. "We now expect to celebrate the opening of this iconic building in Cotai in the second quarter of 2017,” the company wrote in its interim report released last September.
The casino project was initially slated for a 2016 opening date, later pushed back to the first quarter of this year, before it was further postponed to the second quarter.
According to the interim report, the casino-resort is expected to be completed at a cost of USD 2.99 billion, excluding land costs and capitalised interest.
