In December 2016, Japanese policymakers legalized casino gambling. The passage of the law-making that made casinos legal marked the beginning of a long regulation and society process. This process will be paving the way for the growth of the three joint resorts and casino facilities. The next stage in the process requires a range of preferred sites for the three resorts and the corporations that will build and operate them. The primary properties are expected to open doors in the early-to-mid 2020s.
