The large-scale mixed-development will also offer opportunities for KOPL to build new income streams, many of which are recurring in nature, for our sustainable growth going forward… The timing for Wintastar Shanghai could not be better, with Chinese consumers yearning for travel, leisure, novel experiences, and winter sports being the next big thing in China because of the Beijing Winter Olympics 2022.”
