Asian casino operator Donaco International has begun operation of a new gaming floor at Star Paradise, a neighbouring property to its Star Vegas Resort and Club in Poipet, Cambodia.

The gaming floor has 40 tables at the moment, with space for around 50 slot machines as well. Donaco currently owns and operates two casino properties, the Aristo International Hotel in Vietnam and the Star Vegas Resort in Cambodia - border properties targeting gamblers from China and Thailand respectively.
The operator is receiving a US$144,173 monthly fee for managing the new gaming area at Star Paradise under the Star Vegas gaming licence. Donaco will also be reimbursed by the owners of Star Paradise for the cost of running the gaming venue there.
Donaco says it has an exclusive option to purchase the entire Star Paradise operation, including the hotel. “By managing this gaming operation we are well positioned to assess the attractiveness of this business to the Donaco group,” the firm said in its annual report.
