(Macau).- Macau’s COVID-19 recovery is in full swing with the SAR welcoming more than 150,000 visitor arrivals between Friday and Sunday, including 55,845 on Saturday 14 January – the highest daily tally in over a year.

The increase bodes well for the upcoming Chinese New Year holiday, with the weekend’s figures alone having comfortably exceeded the combined 113,699 visitors who arrived in Macau during the entire seven-day Golden week period last year.
It also makes comments by MGTO deputy director Cheng Wai Tong – who on Thursday predicted daily visitation during CNY would reach between 40,000 and 50,000 – appear extremely conservative.
