In response to the extraordinary growth of casino gaming in Macau and the Asia region, TCSJOHNHUXLEY are continuing strategic developments including strengthening the team and expanding and improving operational efficiencies across the region.

Operational efficiencies are being implemented to maximise growth potential and streamline services in the region.
