There was a partial opening made in April 2010 and the official grand opening took place in 2010 on 23rd June. The integrated resort is still under construction and is expected to be completed by the end of 2010.
History
There were two proposals for the first integrated resort in Singapore and one of them was the Marina Bay Sands and the other one is Resorts World Sentosa. These two resorts were envisioned to take care of the objectives of both tourism and economy of Singapore and both have a 30 year license for casino with exclusive ones for the starting decade.
There were four criteria based on which the assessment of bidders were done:
• Contribution and appeal to tourism

• Design and architecture
• Investment in development
• Partners and consortium strength
It was in 2006 May, when Las Vegas Sands (LVS) won the bid for Marina Bay Sands resort. The proposal was commended by international architects for the layout design as being the best among other bidders. The hotel towers were designed in such a way that they had a huge view of both the city and the Marina Bay which in turn made the Singapore downtown skyline more unique and appealing. The bid was submitted by LVS by itself.
The venture
The initial investment was planned around 3.85 billion Singapore dollars but was increased to 8 billion Singapore dollars in 2009 after taking into account the rising prices of labor and raw materials. As per LVS, Marina Bay Sands is one of the most demanding and expensive integrated resort till date. The casino is expected to make $1Billion every year as profit.
An amount of $100 is charged for daily entry and $2000 for unlimited annual access. The resort started attracting nearly 25000 visitors just after a couple of months of opening. Apart from the casino, the resort also features 2500 suites, convention centre and a museum. A lot of feng shui masters were consulted in the designing of this resort.

Inauguration
While the initial opening was scheduled in 2009, it actually happened only in 2010. The Marina Bay Sands resort is not yet completed and is expected to be over by 2011. A preview inauguration was held in April 2010 and the grand opening happened on June 23rd of the same year.
Forecasting
• The two floating pavilions, museum and the 2 theatres will be finished by end of 2010.
• The musical product of Disney productions, The Lion King is expected to debut in the theaters of the resort in 2011 March.
Features

Singapore casino Marina Bay Sands, owned and operated by the Las Vegas Sands group, is currently being investigated by the US Department of Justice (DOJ) over compliance procedures. The investigation is centered around potential breaches of the casino’s anti-money laundering (AML) regulations.

Bloomberg reported that earlier this year, the DOJ issued a subpoena for documents and any other information related to VIP players’ accounts. US prosecutors are rumoured to investigate possible violations involving the use of junkets or third-party lending using casino credit, as well as any possible retaliation against whistleblowers.

This is not the first time Marina Bay Sands was involved in the money-related inquiry. Bloomberg brought up an old case involving the casino, where the funds of one of the players were transferred to another account without the player’s consent. It’s been revealed some of the authorisation letters have been mishandled, which led to the company adjusting its practices.

The report alleges the Singapore’s Casino Regulatory Authority (CRA) is also looking into the venue’s money transfer policies. However, CRA said it hasn’t been contacted by any other agency related to the issue, adding that, “the casinos in Singapore, including Marina Bay Sands, remain free from criminal influence or exploitation, and takes a serious view of any allegations of unauthorized money transfers”. Marina Bay Sands stated it hasn’t been contacted by the DOJ but will take the allegations seriously.
