Maria Helena de Senna Fernandes, director of the Macao Government Tourism Office, recently remarked that the government will use Hong Kong’s quarantine hotel scheme as a reference if it needs to improve Macau’s local scheme. People travelling to Hong Kong are required to undergo quarantine at a designated hotel not only at their own expense, but also with varying costs among different hotels. The tourism regulator has also hinted at the possibilities of finetuning the local scheme in light of efforts to revive the tourism industry.
Organization to introduce ‘quit-smoking service’
The Smoking Abstention & Good Health Association vows to roll out a quit-smoking service targeting special groups of smokers, such as casino staff. This is to complement the government’s current measures relevant to smoking, the organization said. The association is now gathering opinions and data in the community to conceive a new service that helps these special groups of smokers to quit smoking in a more effective way.
