]]> Wynn remains committed to fulfilling its corporate social responsibility and continuously promoting responsible gambling. Pursuant to the new amendments to the law “Regulating the Conditions of Entering, Working and Gaming at Casinos” (Law No. 10/2012, subsequently amended by Law No. 17/2018), the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ) earlier delivered an explanatory session on the casino entry ban for Wynn team members at the Wynn Macau Ballroom, enabling them to fully understand the content of the policy and its implementation measures. The session was attended by 150 Wynn team members.

At the session, Leong Man Ion, Deputy Director of the DICJ, was invited as a guest speaker alongside other representatives, to explain in detail to the Wynn team members of the casino entry ban regarding gaming practitioners being banned from entering casinos when off-duty, as well as the existing measures of responsible gaming. Zuleika Mok, Senior Vice President of Human Resources of Wynn Macau, Limited, then went through the list of job positions regulated by the law, which deepened team members’ understanding of the regulation.

Wynn also hosted a series of internal communication activities, including the establishment of “Team Member Gambling and Entering Casinos” policy, posting promotional signage and video clips, distributing promotional leaflet, as well as organizing 16 roadshows in order to help team members understand more about the casino entry ban. Wynn has also set up a “Team Member Entering Casinos During Off-Duty Hours Permission Identification System” at the employee self-service kiosk, where team members can simply swipe their team member ID card to check whether they can enter Macau casinos during off-duty hours.

Through compliance with the regulation and internal communications, Wynn hopes to enrich team members’ knowledge towards responsible gambling and reduce the chance of employees getting involved in any form of gambling activities, thus lowering the risk of developing gambling problems. These initiatives further showcase the Company’s commitment to implementing responsible gambling, thereby facilitating healthy and sustainable growth in the gaming industry.

]]> Officials from Macau’s Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau as well as the Health Bureau have met with representatives of the SAR’s six casino concessionaires to brief them on new measures aimed at preventing the outbreak of disease.

The meeting, held last Thursday, was in response to a recent outbreak of the event in nearby Wuhan and ensuing warnings from the Health Bureau that some local residents had carried the event back to Macau.

In an announcement, the DICJ said it intended to promote “advanced forms of preparation” against the risk of any local outbreak of communicable disease ahead of the upcoming Chinese New Year holiday – traditionally one of the busiest periods in Macau each year.

Directives issued to concessionaires included a requirement to disseminate information related to communicable diseases to employees in a timely manner; to install temperature-monitoring equipment at all venue entrances to detect fever in both employees and patrons; to monitor the physical condition of employees and patrons; and to ensure that anyone showing signs of fever must disclose whether they have been to Wuhan in the previous 14 days, the DICJ and Health Bureau said.

Authorities must also be informed if a large number of cases are identified.

]]> Macau’s new Secretary for Economy and Finance, Lei Wai Nong, says he is “cautiously optimistic” about the city’s economic prospects in 2020 after seeing mass market revenue overtake the VIP sector for the first time last year.

Gaming Inspection and Coordination (DICJ) figures released last week showed that Macau’s gross gaming revenue totaled MOP292.46 billion (US$36.50 billion) in 2019, down 3.4% year-on-year. The negative impact was primarily felt in the second half of the year, which saw year-on-year falls in five of the last six months including a 13.7% decline in GGR to MOP$22.84 billion (US$2.85 billion) in December.

However, speaking to reporters on Friday, Lei – who replaced Lionel Leong as Secretary for Economy and Finance when he was sworn in as part of new Chief Executive Ho Iat Seng’s government on 20 December – expressed optimism for the future due to stronger mass market performance and the impending launch of a handful of new casinos.

According to Lei, mass market revenue in Macau’s casinos represented 53.7% of GGR in 2019, comprising more than half of the city’s gross gaming revenue for the first time as VIP revenue fell to 46.3%. Those numbers compare with 2018 where mass market comprised around 45.3% of GGR and VIP 54.7%.

Lei added that revenue from mass market gaming had grown 16.7% year-on-year in 2019 while VIP revenue had fallen 18.5%. Full details are due to be released next week.

Despite the fall in GGR, Lei noted that 2019 still represented the fifth highest annual revenue from Macau’s gaming sector since liberalization in 2001, adding that the government was prepared for potential challenges ahead thanks to experience gained during previous times of global economic uncertainty in 2008 to 2009 and in 2014 to 2016.

The government will “closely monitor developments in the global economy and would take any precautionary steps for Macau’s economy that might be deemed necessary,” he said.

Lei also pointed to the impending launch of new casinos in Macau as a positive, the most notable being SJM’s long-awaited Cotai integrated resort, Grand Lisboa Palace.
