    AUSTRALIAN mogul James Packer won approval on Tuesday for a six-star hotel and casino complex on Sydney harbour aimed at Asian high-rollers, with work expected to begin shortly.

    The New South Wales state government legislated to site the Crown Sydney Hotel Resort on foreshore land earmarked as public open space in 2013. The casino, which will sit at Barangaroo on the north-western edge of Sydney's central business district, was then awarded a 99-year gambling licence.
