Thorough regulations are being made by the Chinese government on the construction of new casinos in Macao, as well as restraining the movement of Chinese locals to that area. The main reason is because they fear that the casino industry may debilitate Macao’s economy and its social infrastructure.
An owner of a restaurant in downtown Macau, protests about the bad impact the casino industry has had on his business. “Even if I advertise a job opening, young people in Macao would rather work at casinos. The starting salary there is usually about 14,000 patacas (aproximately 196,000 yen) is twice the amount we pay. I can’t do anything about it”, he said. The sign hanging from the restaurant’s door with the words “help wanted” has “no need to present your ID” underneith; this means that he has no option but to hire illegal chinese tourists.
