CLARK FREEPORT – The first of its kind in Clark, Pokhara Junket Casino formally opened on Wednesday at the ground floor of the Xenia Hotel here.
Amid the typical gaming experience offered by casino establishments here, Pokhara dares to differ by developing a fresh market for junket players, agents and operators.
During its formal opening, Pokhara said it is committed to rendering exceptional service establishments through its highly proficient team members who vow to promote great value to its patrons within its spacious mass gaming floor, six exquisitely designed VIP rooms and nightly live entertainment.
“We are aligned with the Bases Conversion Development Authority’s positioning of Clark as being renowned in Asia, if not internationally, as we aim to bring in international patrons for an exciting gaming experience,” Angel Rosas, Pokhara’s spokesperson said.
“As an effect, this is also foreseen to help boost business in the area,” she added.
Catering to purely foreign gaming patrons, Pokhara is strategically located less than five minutes away from the Clark International Airport. This new establishment promises a luxurious experience to players of good taste with 15 gaming tables ranging from Baccarat, Super 6, Blackjack, Pontoon and Roulette.
To widen its exclusive foreign market reach, the Pokhara management formed a partnership with Hana Tour, the largest travel and tour service provider in South Korea with 29 branches in major cities around the world.
Meanwhile, its strong relationship with Xenia Hotel commits to providing “first rate facilities and impeccable service to guarantee a stay of absolute convenience.”
PJC is owned and managed by seasoned businessmen in various fields, with experienced gaming consultants to boot. The operation is regulated and monitored by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp.
