Extractions: Macau tycoon Stanley Ho Hung-sun, who has controlled the enclave's lucrative casino trade since 1962, will be stripped of his monopoly next year, according to reports. Foreign experts are expected to be brought in to advise the Macau Government on how to open up its gambling sector. Mr Ho, whose entertainment and tourism empire generates about one-third of Macau's gross domestic product, had hoped to hang on to his monopoly for up to five more years. Casinos are the dominant industry in Macau - a popular weekend retreat for residents from Hong Kong, many of them avid gamblers. But a government source said the system would be abolished next year. He said the government hoped to increase its income from gambling taxes. Although Mr Ho will lose his monopoly, his 10 casinos are expected to retain their licences. Experts Macau, which legalised gambling in 1847, introduced the monopoly system 63 years ago.

Extractions: Annual Report 1995 UNU/IIST is devoting a substantial proportion of its resources to lecturing, thesis supervision, joint university research, and proposing and discussing joint development project possibilities with Macau Government authorities. Macau's involvement in high technology concepts is very new. This gives a special dimension to UNU/IIST's interaction with Macau institutions. It also means that UNU/IIST must spend extra resources on "nurturing the ground", supporting the maturation process, etc. During the Autumn of 1994 and Winter and Spring of 1995, Prof. Wang Ju An of Macau University, together with Prof. Zhou Chaochen and others, researched, as part of the Hybrid Systems research programme, A Duration Calculus Approach to Specifying a Steam-boiler Control System. The resulting report was accepted for presentation at a by-invitation only workshop at the International Informatics Workshop Centre: Dagsthul, Saarland, Germany.

Extractions: 22 December 1999 Use this version to print On December 20, 1999, the Portuguese territory of Macau and its 430,000 citizens were incorporated into the Peoples Republic of China as the Macau Special Autonomous Region. Negotiated in 1987, the resumption of Chinese rule over the six-square mile peninsula on the western edge of the Pearl River delta ends 442 years of Portuguese colonial control. Under a "one country, two systems" arrangement, Macau will be governed for the next 50 years by an elected local authority before reverting to Beijing's full control. The 16-minute hand-over ceremony was attended by an array of high-ranking Chinese officials and dignitaries, including President Jiang Zemin and the widow of Deng Xiaoping. A public holiday was declared across China and the Chinese state media gave saturation coverage to the event. Macau does not have the same economic or strategic importance as Hong Kong, which was returned by Britain to China in 1997. Its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of some $US7.8 billion is only one twentieth that of Hong Kong and it plays no comparable role as an entrepot for trade and investment on the mainland. The major industry on Macau is not banking and finance but gambling.

Extractions: Macau's Portuguese colonial rulers legalized the city's first gambling house in 1847. But judging by the public reaction to the May 18 opening of the flashy Sands Macau casino, you would think the Macanese had just discovered sin. Encouraged by false rumors that the Sands planned to hand out free gambling chips, hundreds of people lined up in the early-morning hours hoping to get first crack at the baccarat, poker and blackjack tables. By the time the casino was opened to the public at 3 p.m., more than 15,000 had gathered in a pulsating scrum, ready to rush the lobby. Three sturdy plate-glass doors were ripped from their hinges and several little old ladies were nearly trampled in the ensuing stampede before police restored order by forcing stragglers back to the main street. As night fell, hundreds who failed to get in during the first wave disconsolately waited outside behind police barricades for a chance to place their bets. Their time will come. The opening of the Sands Macau, a $240 million waterfront pleasure dome, offers Asia its first taste of Las Vegas glitz, and the casino will soon be followed by others like it. In 2002 the local government ended a 40-year monopoly on the gambling business, permitting two of Vegas' biggest gaming magnates to open up shop. The economic boom that has ensued is loud even by Chinese standards. While nearby Hong Kong's economy, with a total population 15 times the size of Macau's 450,000, grew just 3.3% during a SARS-marred 2003, Macau's gross domestic product exploded by 15.6%. Meanwhile, more than $3 billion of investment in casino and resort projects is in the pipeline. "Macau is just on fire," says Marc Falcone, a New York City-based gaming analyst for Deutsche Bank.

Special functions and glittering parties, thrown by private citizens and the Macau Government, mark the last days as a hotel of the century-old building House full signs were already going up in February. Those lucky guests who booked early have a few more weeks to enjoy the luxurious, colonial-style surroundings as the graceful old lady sited above the Praia Grande prepares for a new life. "'The last guests will stay on the night of March 27," says manager Paul-Andre Guidat. "A joint farewell evening for owners and management will take place on March 28 and at midnight the shop closes. Then, at midnight on March 30, the Bela Vista will be handed to Portugal." The building will undergo minor changes to prepare it as the official residence of the first Portuguese Consul General when the enclave reverts to Chinese administration from December 20. The Bela Vista Ball, a sumptuous affair organised by Hong Kong's king of the parties Ted Marr, will be one of the highlights in March, with 300 to 400 guests.

MacauMap is developed by the Faculty of Science and Technology (FST) and is free for download from the Office's website. The signing took place in the conference room L105, with Rector Iu Vai Pan, and Mr Joo M Costa Antunes, Director of the Office representing the two sides. Director Antunes said that MacauMap helped tourists find out Macao's information more quickly and accurately and the image of Macao would be therefore promoted. Rector Iu said that one of the missions of UM was to contribute to Macao society and each faculty and centre tried their best to fulfill the mission by developing various research projects. The FST team met many difficulties in the process of the development of the software, before it succeeded. MacauMap would become "the effective tool" to tourists. Rector Iu Vai Pan introduces MacauMap to Mr Jo Antunes (right) Supervised by lecturer Robert Biuk-Aghai, students started the project in October 2001 and finished MacauMap V1.0 in June 2002.

http://www.amrc.org.hk/Arch/3304.htm

Extractions: SEX WORKERS IN MACAU By Kendy Yim, Ziteng project researcher Usually sex workers wait for clients on the streets near hotels. After reaching agreements with clients on the deal, they take the clients to their rooms. No third party is involved in their transactions. As they stay in Macau only for a short period, they work very hard. Except during their menstrual periods, they work everyday. Some sex workers even use medicine to delay their periods to prevent them disrupting opportunities to earn money. All the sex workers we interviewed stayed in hotels. Usually they wake up around noon, and wait for clients in hotel lobbies. Sometimes, they go back to their rooms to rest for a while. Their main working times were from 9:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. In Macau some hotels rent out rooms for sex workers. The interviewees usually stay in small hotels. Each person rents one room if she has enough money. Sometimes, in order to save money, two women share a room. The hotels are only responsible for renting out the rooms. They do not provide clients or provide condoms like guesthouses in Hong Kong or show them how to escape when there is a police raid. Occupational Health and Safety Measures All interviewees except one said firmly that as sex workers, they asked clients to use condoms because they had to protect their own health and their boyfriends'.

The same day marked the establishment of both the Macau Special Administrative Region and, pursuant to Article 59 of the Basic Law of Macau, the Commission Against Corruption. The newly established Commission has the dual functions of combating corruption and fighting administrative illegality. Its structure and staff are basically the same as that of the former Macau High Commission Against Corruption and Administrative Illegality under the former Macau Government. The Commission is an independent organisation directly responsible to the Chief Executive of the Macau Special Administrative Region. In order to realize the aspirations of Mr Edmund HO, Chief Executive, which include the establishment of a government of high efficiency, integrity and accountability, the Commission is going to implement a four pronged approach. This approach, to combat corruption, to prevent corruption, to legislate new laws and to educate the public, will be adopted by the Commission who will be pro-active and adhere to the law in performing its duties and will not be influenced by any other departments, officials or personalities. The Commission will put all its efforts into carrying out reforms, combating corruption and maintaining a clean government; then recommendations will be made to amend laws, increase investigative powers and the number of investigators so that work can be carried out more efficiently.
