Macau's gross gaming revenue (GGR) fell 95.3 percent year on year to 398 million patacas (US$49 million) last month, the casino sector's lowest takings since June 2020 when they amounted to 716 million patacas, according to statistics released by the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ) today.
Month on month, GGR dropped 83.9 percent.
The decline had been expected as Macau's casinos were closed for 12 days by government order last month as part of its special COVID-19 restrictions which will be lifted tomorrow.
In the first seven months, GGR declined 53.6 percent to 26.6 billion patacas.
At the end of June, Macau's six gaming operators owned 37 casinos with 6,006 gaming tables and 12,042 slot machines.
