A new mega-casino opened in the Philippines Monday as the fast-growing southeast Asian nation ups its bid to become a world gaming destination.

The new casino is an imposing structure onManila Bay with six gleaming golden towers surrounding a giant egg-shaped dome,and industry and government leaders hope that it will attract cashed-uptourists from other parts of Asia.
新赌场是马尼拉湾一座雄伟的建筑,六个金光灿灿的金塔围绕着一座巨型蛋形穹顶,工业和政府领导希望可以吸引亚洲其他国家的富有的游客。
