Around 5,000 new jobs would be made available to Filipinos in
Singapore’s Sentosa island, one of the city
state’s main attractions and the host of the newest integrated
resort, Resorts World which opens in 2010.
Philippine Labor Secretary Marianito Roque who visited Singapore
recently said, he was able to get openings in Sentosa for 5,000
Filipinos.
The bulk of the hiring will be coming from Resorts World at
Sentosa, which operates the integrated resort, which announced that
it would be hiring around 20,000 people by the middle of the
year.
The US$4 billion integrated resort is developed by Malaysia’s
Genting International.
The mammoth resort will occupy over 49 hectares of land and will
be the home of Universal Studios, Singapore, Southeast Asia’s first
and only Universal Studios theme park and it will feature 24
attractions, with 18 rides exclusively designed for the park. The
park will be divided into six zones - including Superhero City,
Egypt, New York, The Lost World and Hollywood.
The integrated resort will also have six world-class hotels
offering a total of 1,840 rooms for accommodation. Each hotel is
designed with a different theme, catering to both the leisure and
business visitors.
The casino, with a floor area of 15,000 sqm will be located
beneath Maxims Residences, which is an all-suite hotel with a
magnificent view of Singapore’s Southern waterfront.
Still under negotiation, more jobs for Filipinos at Marina Bay
Sands, Singapore’s first casino, being developed by Las Vegas
Sands.
