Everything you wanted to know about the current Macau gaming law revisions, the public consultation process, and what’s coming up for Macau’s casino gaming concession licensing process – but were too afraid to ask!

This detailed 105-minute video panel, broken up into 20 timestamped sections for your viewing convenience, covers every single matter raised in the Macau Gaming Law revision public consultation document issued by the Macau government on 14 September 2021 – and then some.

IAG Vice-Chairman and CEO Andrew W Scott hosts our esteemed panel of three experts: David Green, Chairman of Newpage Consulting, who worked closely with the Macau government during the gaming law liberalization process 20 years ago; Ryan Ho, Lecturer at the Centre for Gaming and Tourism Studies at the Macau Polytechnic Institute; and Rui Pinto Proença, Managing Partner of Macau specialist gaming law firm MdME lawyers.

David, Rui, Ryan and Andrew engage in a lively and informative discussion discussing a variety of points of view on the Gaming Law revisions, and speculate on possible outcomes and scenarios for the Macau gaming industry as it sees what is widely acknowledged as its most momentous change since liberalization back in 2001.

Grab a nice cup of coffee, sit back, and enjoy the whole video as it unfolds, or for those more strapped for time, go straight to the relevant section of the video by using the following timestamps:
