KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 29): Genting Bhd’s 52.66%-owned subsidiary Genting Singapore Ltd’s operating unit Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) said the Universal Studios Singapore theme park within RWS has reached capacity for Thursday (Dec 31) and Friday (Jan 1, 2021).

Meanwhile, RWS' S.E.A. Aquarium has reached capacity for today and tomorrow, according to a notice on RWS’ website.

"We encourage you to select another date to visit,” RWS said in the notice to potential visitors.

RWS’ notice coincides with the start of Singapore's Phase 3 reopening since yesterday at a time when the global community is still contending with the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic driven restricted movement policies to curb the outbreak.

It was reported that following Singapore’s exit from a two-month-long Covid-19-driven circuit breaker on June 1, authorities said the island nation would reopen in three phases. 

"Phase 2 started on June 19, and the Covid-19 task force had said in October that Phase 3 could begin before the end of the year,” CNA reported on Dec 14.

On Bursa Malaysia today, Genting’s share price closed down five sen or 1.1% at RM4.50 at 5pm for a market capitalisation of about RM17.33 billion. The stock saw some 10 million shares traded.
