Attending a forum organised by local think tank Macau Wisdom Convergence yesterday, guest speakers Iu Veng Ion, Sam Keng Wan and Vong Kuoc Ieng urged the government to “plan well” how to use the large plot of land  currently leased by Macau Yat Yuen Canidrome Co. Ltd for its controversial greyhound races.

The government announced last month that the company will have to shut down its current racetrack within two years. The government also said the operator would need to find another location if it wants to continue greyhound racing.

The outdoor forum was held in Iao Hon focusing on how to use the plot of land after the relocation. About a dozen residents attended the forum.
