Corporate Bits | A new style of entertainment on Saipan

saipan 4281A55B9E42010B09CD74CCFB17B2CLUB C Saipan, a gaming and entertainment venue, located in the 4-star 200+ room Kanoa Resort Saipan, opened its doors on Saipan, the capital of the Northern Marianas. The facility is currently open from 11am to 3am daily, and features 8,000 square-feet of entertainment space, gaming machines and stadium-style electronic table games with a seating capacity of 200.  It will also offer a fusion of live entertainment and a state of the art digital music selection. A stellar international musical group from Macau will be headlining the opening of the Club. The club’s opening comes on the heels of the introduction of the E-Gaming Law signed last December 2013 on the Island of Saipan.
CLUB C Saipan’s owners engaged an international management team from Macau, IGamiX Management & Consulting Ltd, headed by Ben Lee, to operate the Club to international standards and to provide a first class tourism facility. “We’ve invested USD4 million, or $500 per square foot into this facility; we’ve provided 50 new jobs to locals including retirees; and we’re getting ready to remit our first wave of gaming taxes to the government at 15% of our gross revenue. That’s the second highest rate in all of Asia after Macau’s 39.5% rate. We knew that Saipan’s gaming tax was high as compared to other Asian nations but we pushed forward with confidence in the CNMI,” said Lee.
