Quote of the Day

“Let’s face it … Macau is a small city and its government is more like the town council of any moderately large town in other parts of the world, so it is time to strip out all the hype and overblown stories of Macau being a world-class city, as a hub for MICE, or as a truly significant player as a portal between East and West; that is simply noise. Setting aside the casinos and resorts, much of Macau is a grimy, polluted, third-rate, poky, over-populated backwater, and a sense of realism must pervade the chief executive’s pronouncements and actions to improve Macau.” — Prof. Keith Morrison of the Macau University of Science and Technology.
