TOURISM | CE gets positive feedback on visa scheme optimization

Chief Executive Chui Sai On said that he received positive feedback from Beijing for the local government’s plan to optimize the current individual visa scheme, TDM reported.
Mr Chui did not provide further details on future arrangements to optimize this policy. After meeting with the director of the National Tourism Administration, Li Jinzao, Macau’s leader said they had discussed the optimization of the individual visa scheme policy. He hinted that China’s National Tourism Administration has indicated a favorable response thus far.
However, Mr Chui chose not to disclose further details, saying, “I think we have not reached this step yet, on the adjustment of the Individual Visa Scheme. I don’t want to make assumptions now. However, in general, the National Tourism Administration supports Macau a lot.”
In the meeting, Mr Chui took the opportunity to clarify that Macau would remain a tourism-oriented city, welcoming visitors “who feel at home” here, according to a statement from the Government’s Information Bureau.
