“Right now, our priority is ensuring we play our part in safeguarding the health and safety of our employees and guests, even if that means delaying the opening for a short while. Myself and the team are confident the good times aren’t too far away and we can look up to brighter days when we open the gates to our incredible Theme Park and present the unique, fun and amazing adventures Genting SkyWorlds has to offer. What we have created is extraordinary and definitely going to be worth the wait!” said Mr. Greg Pearn, Head of Theme Parks & Experiences at Resorts World Genting.
