Gaming Inspection and Co-ordination Bureau (DICJ) Director Paulo Martins Chan said yesterday the government decided that the current location of the city’s greyhound racetrack must be vacated within two years because it provides the operator with enough time to prepare for the change, adding that the government had also taking public opinion into consideration.
Macau’s top gaming inspector made the remarks as a guest speaker at Macau Forum, an open-air debate hosted by government-owned broadcaster TDM in Areia Preta Park every Sunday.
The government last week announced that the operator, Macau Yat Yuen Canidrome Co. Ltd, will have to leave the racetrack in Fai Chi Kei by July 21, 2018, and that the company would need to find another location if it wants to continue dog racing.
