The Commonwealth Casino Commission will be hiring 25 personnel as the regulator prepares for the opening of a casino in Garapan.<\/p>\n
Commission executive director Edward Deleon Guerrero said the 25 personnel are expected to occupy 17 different job positions.<\/p>\n
An advertisement from the commission indicated 12 administrative positions, nine positions for enforcement, and four audit and compliance positions.<\/p>\n
Deleon Guerrero said the regulators are \u201choping to expeditiously start the interview process, then provide training for the additional personnel.\u201d<\/p>\n
Deleon Guerrero said the commission\u2019s division on investigation and enforcement will have an office at the T-Galleria where the casino is located.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is basically the regulatory monitoring staff,\u201d Deleon Guerrero said, adding that the commission\u2019s office at the T-Galleria will be open \u201c24×7\u201d and will be manned round the clock on three shifts.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will have our own surveillance monitors within the facility,\u201d Deleon Guerrero said.<\/p>\n
He said the commission is setting up \u201ca lot of training\u201d for the enforcement division and will try to provide the training early.<\/p>\n
Deleon Guerrero said there was no definite date yet on the opening of the temporary casino being setup by Best Sunshine International, Ltd. although it was earlier reported that the opening was supposed to be this July.<\/p>\n
But the official said, \u201cmost of the slot machines are already there and are already being assembled.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said the regulators are also conducting weekly meetings with Best Sunshine for updates.<\/p>\n
Deleon Guerrero also confirmed that the casino commission is working with the Department of Public Safety, Division of Customs, the Office of Public Auditor, and other enforcement agencies to plan for an \u201congoing task force to monitor this new industry.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
