Travel Agents Gather In Macau For Convention

The Hong Kong Association of Travel Agents 35th Annual Overseas Convention has been held at the Venetian Macau Resort Hotel and attended by a record of more than 300 members, representing around 100 travel agencies in Hong Kong and Macau.

On a welcome speech to the convention, director of Macau Government Tourist Office Joao Manuel Costa Antunes said that Macau has entered into a new era, emphasizing that to keep the current success, quality of tourism services needs to be a top priority.

"Macau's tourism industry is thriving. We have worked very hard to achieve what we are witnessing now: the diversification of our tourist product. Macau has now a product offer that justifies a few day's visit," Costa Antunes pointed out. But the MGTO director emphasized that, in these booming times, quality of services must be a priority of the tourism industry, in order to attract tourists to repeat their visit to Macau and to extend their length of stay.
