Management at Genting Malaysia, operator of the Resorts World Genting casino resort in Malaysia, has announced that the 20th Century Fox World Malaysia theme park planned for the venue will open by the end of 2017.

“We expect second half 2016 at Resorts World Genting to be better operationally due to seasonally higher gaming volume and the opening of Sky Plaza,” said Samuel Yin Shao Yang, an analyst at Maybank IB Research, in a note last week.

Sky Plaza is part of the improvements planned for the resort, to be realised under the Genting Integrated Tourism Plan. Sky Plaza, which Maybank said is due to open in the fourth quarter, will feature a podium including new gaming space.
