Sands China shares rise on clearance for 200 more gaming tables

Sands China shares rose 1.6 per cent yesterday after the casino operator said it had received government approval for 200 more gaming tables.

There was little change in the benchmark Hang Seng Index.

Some of the new gaming tables would be added before the Lunar New Year holiday, which starts on February 10, Sands China chief executive Edward Tracy said.
