Reports also suggest that the key focus for the new resort would be the burgeoning India and China markets.

It is being developed as a destination for shoppers across the world, with a mix of emerging labels and international luxury brands, as well as innovative entertainment options including boat rides along the canal flowing through the mall and an indoor ice-skating rink.
