Inside Asian Gaming

IAG OCT 2019年10月 亞博匯 88 TRADE EVENTS BB: The junket industry has attracted some negative publicity over the past few months in both China and Australia. What are your thoughts on the situation and how important do you see junkets being to the long-term future of Macau’s gaming industry? JC: From my personal perspective, Macau has the tightest laws and regulations for anti-money laundering and faces the strictest supervision. So I believe the junkets in Macau will continue to grow and develop in a healthy way and will still play an important role in the long-term future of Macau’s gaming industry. BB: What does Macau need to truly become a World Center of Tourism and Leisure? JC: I think Macau can continue to deepen its master plan as a Creative City of Gastronomy and expand its focus on destination marketing. Through “Exchange and Innovation” Macau can strengthen its inheritance and innovation of local Macanese Cuisine and carry out cross-field cooperation and exchange with other creative cities in the world by hosting and supporting international gastronomic events. The service industry is also another mainstream industry in Macau. I believe that by improving service quality as well as urban transportation planning, such as the LRT system, we can further promote Macau to become a World Center of Tourism and Leisure. BB: 澳門若希望真正成為一個世界旅遊休閒中心，到底需要些甚 麼？ JC: 我認為澳門可以繼續深化其美食之都的總體規劃，並且把焦點 擴展到目的地推廣之上。我們能夠通過交流及創新來強化對於本土 土生菜的傳承和創新，並通過主辦及支持國際美食盛事來與世界上 其他創意城市進行跨界別合作及交流。 另外，服務業也是澳門的另一個主流行業。我相信通過改進服 務質素，以及改善包括輕軌系統在內的市內交通規劃，我們將可以 更進一步地把澳門推廣為一個世界旅遊休閒中心 。 “I believe by improving service quality as well as urban transportation planning, such as the LRT system, we can further promoteMacau to become a World Center of Tourism and Leisure.” 「我相信通過改進服務質素，以及改善包括輕 軌系統在內的市內交通規劃，我們將可以更進 一步地把澳門推廣為一個世界旅遊休閒中心。」
