    PlayLab was inspired by the executives’ various vacation and business trips in Sentosa, Singapore, Tokyo Borderless in Japan, to name a few.

    “We, our, executives go abroad, including me. We often see art and science museums that we find very wholesome for families to go to, and we also noticed that they are a very big crowd puller. So combine our need for this kind of amusement establishment, and the inspiration we saw abroad are mostly in Singapore, Japan, Malaysia,” explained Dawin Renolayan, RLC’s Business Developer.

    “Instead of art and science museums, we came up with a digital playground in the country because we want the kids to be amazed with the digital work of arts, and we actually want them to play with them. So the digital playground is where we went to,” added Renolayan.
