Today, Sentosa offers its guests more excitement and fun-filled activities than ever before. We continue to dedicate ourselves to providing a platform for everyone to play and bond with friends and loved ones, and so we were delighted to see more than 20 million visitors grace us with their presence on Sentosa in the course of a year. To mark the island’s 40th year, we threw a slew of parties and activities to encourage Singaporeans and our foreign visitors to play on the island, while reliving their Sentosa experiences of yesteryear. For starters, we created a nostalgic exhibition that included a mural of photos contributed by our guests, sharing family pictures in our old monorail train and at the ferry terminal, the Musical Fountain and Fantasy Island. On 1 September 2012, we celebrated the island’s 40th birthday by throwing open our doors with free island admission for guests.

  • Statement by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Integrated Resort on Monday, 18 April 2005 at Parliament House
    STATEMENT BY PRIME MINISTER LEE HSIEN LOONG ON INTEGRATED RESORT ON MONDAY, 18 APRIL 2005 AT PARLIAMENT HOUSE PROPOSAL TO DEVELOP INTEGRATED RESORTS INTRODUCTION 1. Integrated Resorts (IRs) are a significant proposal to boost our tourism industry. The government has been studying this idea for over a year. The issue has been debated intensely, both among the public and within the government, because the IRs will also include a gaming component, i.e. a casino. Many Singaporeans have spoken up both for and against. 2. To assess the viability of the proposal, the Government called a Request- For-Concept (RFC) in December 2004, to invite interested players to submit concept proposals to develop IRs on two sites – Marina Bayfront and Sentosa. The RFC attracted 19 bids. After studying the bids, and considering all the views expressed, the Cabinet has decided to proceed with the project and to call for firm proposals to develop two IRs, both at Marina Bayfront and Sentosa. 3. Today, I will explain how the Cabinet reached this decision, and the key considerations that caused us to change our longstanding policy not to allow casinos in Singapore. I also want to acknowledge the concerns of those who oppose or have expressed reservations about an IR, and explain how we propose to limit the negative impact of the casinos. Finally, I hope to bring all Singaporeans together, so that even though we may not all agree on this issue, we understand and respect each other’s reasons and concerns, and can close ranks and move ahead. 4. After my statement, the Minister for Trade and Industry, Mr Lim Hng Kiang, will explain the tourism and economic aspects of the proposal; the Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports, Dr Vivian Balakrishnan, will explain the safeguards we propose to limit the social impact of casino gambling; and the Minister for Home Affairs, Mr Wong Kan Seng, will explain issues of law and order and enforcement.
