The Macao Government Tourism Office (MGTO) has launched a public survey to collect local respondents’ opinions on the direction of the second phase of the Macau Tourism Master Plan.
The survey, launched yesterday, will be available for one month (until Sept. 21) to collect opinions from residents on several aspects related to tourism development.
“Through the survey, MGTO seeks residents’ comments and perspectives regarding Macau’s tourism development over recent years, as well as the future of this development. Responses will contribute to the second phase review study,” MGTO noted.
MGTO has commissioned research company Deloitte to oversee the study.
Deloitte will “reexamine the new environment, re-clarify new policies, readjust the new requirements, and re-appraise new trends.”
An analysis will also be conducted on Macau’s current tourism situation, as well as its trends, in the wake of the pandemic.
The study will also include a retrospective overview of tourism action plans in progress from 2021 to 2024.
Members of the public are welcome to fill out the survey at www.macaotourism.gov.mo/en/r/masterplan_survey_2024.
According to the office, this study is part of an evaluation mechanism for the Master Plan that was proposed in a report in 2021, which noted changes in the tourism landscape beginning in 2020.
This first review study has amended the Master Plan which currently consists of 91 action plans, comprising 77 phased plans (up to five years) and 14 long-term plans (six years or more).
These will synchronize Macau’s tourism industry with guidelines pertaining to China’s development, better orientating the SAR government.
