Corporate Bits | The Venetian team member wins award

Las Vegas Sands Corp (LVS) has named a team member of The Venetian Macao as the winner of “The Mr. Sheldon G. and Dr. Miriam Adelson Citizenship Award” presented by Sands Cares.

May Wu Yee Mei is a team member at The Venetian Macao, and has been working for the company for 10 years, a statement from the gaming operator informed.

Only 12 finalists from LVS’s properties worldwide were selected and named Sands Cares Heroes of the Year during the first quarter of 2018, and were invited to Las Vegas to attend a ceremony.

Wu has been involved in various volunteer efforts with both Sands China and with outside organisations for the past eight years.

In 2015, she was the recipient of the Excellent Volunteer for Community Service Award by the Association of Volunteer Social Service Macau.

“I hope more team members will be inspired to join the Sands Cares Ambassador programme in the future so that more people in need can benefit from their service,” said Wu.

Fiber cable underway for HKZMB

HGC Global Communications Limited (HGC) and Hong Kong and China Telecommunications recently announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding for the construction of a network interconnection system via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai- Macau Bridge (HKZMB).
This will be the first interconnection between Hong Kong and Mainland
China’s  telecommunication network service providers on the HKZMB
and is HGC’s fifth cross- border route between mainland China and Hong
Kong.

Once the interconnection is in place, the fiber cable will stretch along the 29.6 kilometer dual 3-lane carriageway including a 6.7 kilometer tunnel and will connect to the Boundary Crossing Facilities in Hong Kong, Zhuhai, and Macau, according to a statement released by HGC.
The new link boosts capacity by at least 100Gbps, with a design
capacity of 8Tbps.

According to HGC, the fiber cable deployed at the ‘Hong Kong Link Road’ section of the HKZMB is now in service, offering fiber and transmission capacity even before the official opening of the bridge.
