The government plans to build a leisure area in Taipa in front of the two plots of land being auctioned for residential development, the Chief Executive (CE) told the Legislative Assembly Friday.
According to the CE, the park, covering over 15,000 square meters, will include an underground ice-skating rink to allow local youth to engage in this sport.
“There is no such facility in Macau, not even in Zhuhai. Local people need to go all the way to Shenzhen if they want to practice this sport,” Ho said, noting that if the city has enough space to allow the construction of this new type of facility, why not do it in Macau.
The facility, dubbed the government’s latest idea, will also include an underground parking lot as well as other leisure and entertainment areas, the CE said.
The CE did not disclose information as to when the government plans to present this project to the population, nor start preparations for its construction.
Officially, the government has not yet disclosed the purpose of the plot of land. RM
