Genting

Genting Highlands is a hill resort in the Titiwangsa Range of Pahang state, Malaysia, located roughly north of Kuala Lumpur. It is known for its cool climate, mountain scenery, and a development cluster that revolves around the Genting Skyway cable car, which connects the town to the lowlands. The centerpiece is Resorts World Genting, an integrated resort that includes hotels, a large shopping and dining complex, entertainment venues, and a casino. Since its expansion in the late 20th century, the site has become a major leisure destination for domestic and regional visitors and remains a significant contributor to tourism and local economy.

Genting Group is a Malaysian multinational conglomerate best known for its hospitality, leisure, and entertainment holdings under the Resorts World brand. The group was founded in 1965 by Lim Goh Tong and later led by his son, Lim Kok Thay.
