|September 2, 2025
Andrew Tan’s Travellers International Hotel Group Inc. is taking majority control over the development of the Westside Integrated Resort, as its foreign-controlled partner Suntrust Resort Holdings Inc. has agreed to reduce its stake in the project to 20 percent due to financial challenges.
In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange, Suntrust said its Board of Directors “authorized the company to pursue a strategic working agreement with Travellers International Hotel Group, Inc., Westside City Inc., Westside Bayshore Holding Corporation, and Entertainment City Resorts Corporation (ECRC).”
The agreement aims to expedite the completion of the now-expanded, but previously delayed, Westside Integrated Resort Project, located in Entertainment City, Parañaque City.
