Sessions will include "Singapore: Up and Running," "Japan, Taiwan & Korea: The Promised Land?," "Vietnam, Thailand & India: The Emerging Jurisdictions" and "The Philippines, Cambodia & Malaysia: The Established Jurisdictions." Conference attendees will be joined by attendees of the G2E Asia Gaming Management Certificate Programme, also being held on June 8, for a keynote luncheon at which Mr. Francis Lui, Deputy Chairman of Galaxy Entertainment Group will be the featured speaker.

On June 9, conference attendees will have the opportunity to hear from a gaming industry legend during the keynote session when Mr. Len Ainsworth, Executive Chairman of Ainsworth Game Technology, receives the 2010 G2E Asia Visionary Award for his significant contributions to the industry in the realm of gaming technology.
