A Macau delegation is in Malaysia to learn more about the mechanisms in licensing and inspection of hotels, restaurants and other tourism infrastructures adopted in that country that might serve as case studies to the SAR. “While we are in the process of revising the licensing regime of hotels and Food and Beverage outlets in Macau, it is important to observe how other places deal with this issues, see what are the new trends in the tourism product development, and the technical solutions for licensing adopted by those places”, points out the head of delegation Inês Chan Lou, acting head of Licensing and Inspection Department of Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO). During the visit to Malaysia, the delegation will have meetings with officials from Kuala Lumpur City Hall licensing, urban planning, tourism and promotion departments. It is also planned site inspections to trendy food and beverage outlets, the entertainment complex Genting Highlands Resort, and to the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. All of them interesting study cases for Macau, given the new tourism infrastructures being planned locally. The one dozen-people delegation includes head of departments and staff from MGTO, Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau, Fire Services Bureau, Health Bureau and Land, Public Works and Transport Bureau. The group left Macau on Saturday and returns on Tuesday. This familiarization trip to Malaysia takes place just two weeks after the Macau SAR chief executive paid an official visit to the country, during which relations were strengthen, especially in the tourism area.
