The gross receipts of Macao's 21 casinos are expected to reach 50 billion
patacas (US$6.25 billion) in 2006, a new record high, local media reported
Wednesday.
The Macao Post Daily quoted Manuel das Neves, director of the Gaming
Inspection and Coordination Bureau, as saying that the year- on-year casino
receipts growth will surpass 10 percent.
The total casino gross receipts stood at 44.72 billion patacas (US$5.59
billion) in 2005, up 8.2 percent over the previous year, according to official
statistics issued earlier this year.
