Berjaya issues statement and now its up to government

Berjaya Group which came under the limelight for claiming that they have been given the sports betting license which is denied by the government has officially stated that they had indeed gotten the green light. They issued a statement to Bursa Malaysia which stated that "We note that there had been many conflicting discussions about the actual status of the approval given to Ascot to operate sports betting in the country. In compliance with the directive from Bursa, we wish to reiterate certain parts of the (May 12) announcement.”

The statement also stated that "'It was stated inter-alia that 'the Minister of Finance has given its approval for the re-issuance to Ascot of the licence to carry out sports betting operations upon certain terms and conditions. 'In paragraph 8 which listed out the Approvals Required, sub-paragraph (d) stated, 'The Minister of Finance for the re-issuance of the sports betting licence and the changes in shareholders and directors in Ascot, if required.' As such it is evident from the above statements that Ascot has approval from the finance minister to conduct sports betting operations and that the formal licence - which was first issued in 1987 - is pending re-issuance
