Japan is also expected to pick locations and operators for its first integrated resorts ? large complexes that include casinos, hotels and retail.
Major casino operators worldwide, including Las Vegas Sands Corp, MGM Resorts International and Wynn Resorts, have expressed their interests in gunning for these licenses in Japan.
What we`re talking about is two to three large integrated resorts, maybe a couple more regional type of small casinos, so limited amount of positions," Bumazhny said.
Despite such restrictions, the city state`s two integrated resorts ? large complexes comprising casinos, hotels, retail and entertainment outlets ? have attracted tourism dollars and contribute to overall growth.
Casino operators around the world are eyeing an entry into the seemingly lucrative Japanesemarket, but one analyst said lawmakers in the world`s third largest economy may follow in Singapore`s footsteps to limit gambling among her citizens.
