Record fine for Aus casino operator over money laundering_我的网站

A |     Sydney, Oct 17 (UNI) Australian gambling giant Star Entertainment Group has been fined $62 million for failing to stop money laundering at its Sydney casino.
The group's licence to operate the casino has also been suspended. The record penalties were announced in response to a damning inquiry in New South Wales (NSW) earlier this year, the BBC said.
The fine announced on Monday is the maximum allowed, but the regulator stopped short of removing Star's licence altogether, to protect thousands of jobs. Under the conditions of the suspension, the casino will still operate under a manager appointed by the regulator.
From Friday the Star will not be able to run the casino on its own until it can "earn" its licence back, NSW Independent Casino Commission chief Philip Crawford said.
The inquiry earlier this year led to the resignations of Star's former chief executive Matt Bekier.
Its final report, handed down last month, found the Star was not fit to hold a casino licence in NSW.
Casino operators in Australia have been under great pressure to reform their gambling operations following reports of widespread criminal activity.
A public inquiry earlier this year heard the Star had allowed money laundering and organised crime to infiltrate their Sydney casino, taking a "cavalier" approach to governance and at times making deliberate steps to cover its tracks.
In response to the report, the Star Entertainment Group said it had taken "significant and urgent remedial steps" and would do "whatever necessary" to restore its suitability to run the casino.
The Star entered a trading halt on Monday morning, which is set to last until Wednesday.
After a similar inquiry in Queensland, The Star was earlier this month also found unsuitable to run its three casinos in that state.
Media investigations have aired allegations of misconduct at various casinos around Australia in recent years, including at those owned by the country's largest gaming and entertainment group - Crown Resorts.

B |     沧州有一家订单式工厂，为不同路况精准研发不同配方的沥青。8月20日，在黄骅市港城产业园区的伦特化工集团有限公司沥青材料研究院内，研究院主任崔世媛正带领科研人员，对一款黑色沥青样本进行配方优化实验。“这款沥青是我们历时3年时间，经过上百次配比试验研发出来的。”崔世媛说，通过精准配比，能让沥青分子内部构建起稳固的三维化学交联网络，相当于给沥青分子“搭起骨架”，从根本上解决性能不稳定的问题。相比传统材料，其高温抗车辙力提升50%、低温抗裂性提高20%、路面使用寿命延长30%。去年9月，这款自主研发的沥青一走出实验室，就被大规模应用在沧州市沧乐分线道路施工中。沧乐分线上通行的大型运输车占比超六成，长期的重载碾压让路面病害频发。

C | “使用这款沥青，不仅能解决重载路段夏天软塌顽疾，还能减少冬季路面裂缝。”崔世媛介绍。“作为传统沥青生产企业，要想实现持续发展，必须依靠创新突围。”该公司副总经理王新亮说，伦特化工集团每年将销售收入10%以上资金投入研发，紧跟国内公路建设及养护技术发展趋势，研究沥青新工艺、新材料。为推动科技创新和产业创新深度融合，他们联合交通运输部公路科学研究院、上海交通大学、同济大学等多家院校，成立沥青材料研究院，在沥青材料改性技术、高效生产工艺、智能化公路养护设备等方面发力，打通产学研用创新链条。

D | 目前，研究院已获得50余项国家专利。走进该公司展厅，如同进入一个“沥青超市”。

E | 多种沥青样本盛在玻璃瓶中，有的乌黑厚重，有的色彩亮丽；有的放在冰柜里，可耐受零下四十摄氏度低温；有的浸泡在水箱里，适配排水路面施工需求……该公司60多种沥青产品中，有不少是自主研发的高粘改性沥青、赛道专用沥青、温拌沥青等特种沥青。

F | “针对高温重载、高寒冻土、专业赛事等不同路面需求，我们可以实现‘一路一配方’的定制化生产。

G | ”王新亮介绍。在生产车间，生产线有序运转，改性剂上料机器人在一旁供料。“上料机器人可将投料计量误差控制在0.3%以内。”王新亮说，以前，人工拆袋、搬运、投料，需要3至4名工人连续作业，现在，车间内仅需一名工作人员巡回值守。满产状态下，全年产能达90万吨。

H | “我们将锚定基础设施领域一站式综合解决方案提供商的目标，不断研发具有自主知识产权的特种沥青产品，积极探索低碳、环保发展模式。”王新亮表示。（乔宾娟）。
