    The segments are reported in a manner that is consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.

This measurement basis excludes the effects of gain or loss on disposal of assets, assets written off, impairment loss or reversal of previously recognised impairment loss, pre-operating expenses and other non-recurring items.
    The Group is organised into the following main business segments:

Leisure & Hospitality - this segment comprises integrated resort activities which include gaming, hotels, food and beverages ("F&B"), theme parks, retail, entertainment attractions, tours and travel related services and other supporting services.

Properties -this segment is involved in property developments, property investment and management.

All other immaterial business segments including investment in equities, training services, reinsurance services, utilities services, yacht charter services and information technology related services are aggregated and disclosed under "Investments & Others" as they are not of sufficient size to be reported separately.
