The Chief Executive, Mr Edmund Ho Hau Wah, left today for Thailand on the start of his seven-day official visit to three Southeast Asian countries. Mr Ho is scheduled to pay courtesy calls on high-level government officials of Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore during the visit, at which he would bolster bilateral co-operation in the tourism industry and promote Macao's role as a business platform between China and the Portuguese-speaking countries. During his visit to Singapore, the last stop on his itinerary, Mr Ho is scheduled to attend a briefing on its upcoming integrated resort projects. Speaking at the airport before his departure, Mr Ho said he believed that Macao and Singapore could further co-operate in terms of regional tourism and many other areas, building on the basis of their existing co-operation. However, Mr Ho said he believed that there were not much co-operation or fierce competition in their gaming sector due to the geographical locations and different target customers. The Secretary for Administration and Justice, Ms Florinda Chan, is to act as Chief Executive while Mr Ho is away.
