Abstract | The viewpoints from industry (1) briefly review the success in last decade (2) analyze what challenges and difficulties came across currently, and (3) forecast opportunities/development in next decade of Macau gambling industry. Macroeconomic and political factors in China are the principal direct cause of Macau’s gambling revenue decline in 2014, implicating the vulnerability and unsustainability associated with the VIP business model of gambling industry. Although Macau continues to face challenges since late 2014, the prospect of Macau gambling industry is still optimistic in the long term, as there are emerging positive catalysts which will boost demand. From casino operators’ perspective, they should continue to try to increase revenue from mass market and non-gaming business by relocating the resource and adding more non-gaming amenities. This paper provides a fresh perspective, and a new line of thinking with regard to how gambling industry in Macau will develop in next decade since 2015. It therefore potentially directs a new path of research in the area. |
