Do you have confirmation on the opening date for the theme park as yet? Press release from ResortsWorld Sentosa does not have date for the Universal Studios theme park included, only hotels.

Today is Jan 20,2010. Congrats for the resort hotels opening. I wonder is it too soon to visit the theme park during the Chinese New Year (Feb 12- 15, 2010)?
