That was in preparation for moving the gaming licence to the group’s new foreigner-only casino at the new Jeju Dream Tower complex on the north coast, a company representative has confirmed after a telephone enquiry by GGRAsia.
A representative at the Jeju local government also confirmed to GGRAsia the closure of Jeju Lotte’s casino, pending the relocation.
Won Hee-ryong, governor of the Jeju Special Self-governing Province, signed on Thursday morning a document considered mandatory before Lotte Tour Development can transfer its casino licence for Jeju.
