Central People’s Government Liaison Office Director Wang Zhimin said in his address during a reception on Friday celebrating the Chinese New Year it was “exceptional” that Macau could achieve full employment and economic stability last year amid the ongoing pressure of the global economic slowdown.
The event took place at Macau Tower, with more than 1,000 people attending, including Chief Executive Fernando Chui Sai On, senior local government officials, lawmakers, Executive Council members, representatives of the Office of the Foreign Ministry Commissioner and the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Macau Garrison, foreign consuls accredited to Macau, as well as local community leaders.
Pointing out that Macau experienced an “extraordinary and unforgettable year” in 2016, Wang noted that the city enjoyed a stable economy, financial system and public finances last year.
