Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture Alexis Tam Chon Weng said yesterday that the temporary closure of Beijing Imperial Palace Hotel in Taipa won’t have a negative impact on Macau’s image as an international tourist destination. 

 Tam said the hotel’s six-month closure by the government on Friday was necessary as the condition of the property constituted a public safety threat.

Tam added that instead it would have had a negative impact on Macau’s image if the government had not implemented measures to force the hotel’s temporary closure.
