Daisy Ho, chairman of SJM Holdings Limited and managing director of SJM Resorts, S.A., remarked: “Throughout the first half of 2024, the Group made significant progress in both gaming and non-gaming sectors, achieving steady growth through continuous innovation and service optimization.
“Moving into the latter part of the year, we will intensify our efforts to broaden our food and beverage portfolio, launching a variety of new destination dining outlets and exclusive gastronomic events, alongside advancing the initial phase of the Kam Pek Market revitalization plan,” she added.
The gaming operator added it will be hosting various branded sporting competitions, in the realms of wushu, golf, and tennis.
