Its an 8.5 Billion Dollar Hotel in a pristine location with a major Geographic Advantage...it will absorb the majority of the chinese gaming tourism market coming to australia...it will be first stop on their itinerary and first opportunity to lose money in Australia.
Why would you fly to Melbourne to gamble in Australia's largest(ugliest?) building...Melbourne (& perth) offers little attraction to the chinese tourist and is geographically disadvantaged.

No question that Tony Fung has a big vision for Australia...
