MGM held the annual blessing ceremony for its Dragon Boat Team at the Nam Van Lake Nautical Center, led by a team of the Company’s senior executives, the gaming operator announced in a statement. The ceremony was to extend best wishes to 59 MGM team members who will take part in the “Macao International Dragon Boat Races 2020” later on this month. Consisting of over 90% of local employees, the Dragon Boat Team will split up into two sub-teams and compete across 4 categories.
The ceremony featured a series of traditional rituals, such as offering incense, carving a suckling pig and eye-dotting the dragon boats – a gesture made to symbolically awaken the spirit of the boats.
Kenneth Feng, President, Chief Strategic Officer and Director, said, “MGM encourages team members to compete in the international race every year, for it is not only the best way to inherit this traditional sport, but also a great opportunity to embody the spirit of unity, cooperation and determination.”
