Kerkorian's MGM Grand company, is likely to assume the post of CEO
of Tropicana Resort & Casino Las Vegas.

likelihood on June 18 Yemenidjian's appointment as CEO of Tropicana
Las Vegas will be also approved by the indicated commission.
Tropicana is now facing serious financial problems, and the work to
turn it into a profitable company will become a new challenge to Alex
