Galaxy Entertainment Group Ltd., the Macau casino operator that made Lui Che-woo Asia's third-richest man, plans to invest in China's Hengqin Island and will consider investing at least $5 billion in Japan and Taiwan if allowed.
Macau's second-largest casino operator would consider spending at least 20 billion Hong Kong dollars ($2.58 billion) in Japan or Taiwan each if those markets open up, Deputy Chairman Francis Lui, the eldest son of the billionaire, said in an interview Friday.
Galaxy plans to invest HK$10 billion on setting up sports and nongaming facilities in the southern Chinese island, he said.
