MRI Eyeing New Gambling Markets: Not only is Mirage Resorts International working toward domestic partnerships (see "Today’s News" 8/7/2013 for word on the company’s ambition to merge Nevada’s online gaming market with New Jersey’s, with a view to maximizing the two entity’s separate strengths — a dynamic, vibrant, iconic, and perennially popular gaming and leisure destination, and a far larger and gaming-friendly population to market to, respectively — and mitigating any converse weaknesses), comes an announcement from CEO Jim Murren, during a second quarter earnings call, that the U.S.-based casino giant is looking beyond its established casino presence in Macau, and non-gaming hotel presence in China and Vietnam, and is now considering its opportunities in what are predicted to be Asia’s next two gambling hotspots: Japan and South Korea.
