Chief Executive Fernando Chui Sai On has said Macau’s economic slump is a chance for the city to develop industries other than gaming.

“The downturn of the economy is certainly an opportunity for us to set up new regional and strategic polices. After 10 years of rapid development in which the gaming industry dominated the whole economy, it has now brought us some problems to solve,” Mr Chui told the Legislative Assembly.

“The gaming industry will not be as appealing as before in attracting most of the city’s manpower. So we will need to offer more training and education to manpower that aims to engage in non-gaming sectors.”
