Macau takes AIME on Australia
MACAU – The Macau Government Tourist Office has expanded its presence at this year’s AIME trade show in Melbourne. A record 12 Macau trade partners are participating in next week’s event.
Helen Wong, general manager Australia for the Macau Government Tourist Office, said Macau is investing significantly in international marketing to attract MICE business.
She said there is particular interest in Australia, where the economy has fared better than many other countries following the challenges of 2009.
“The Australian economy has weathered the economic storm well, with the business community and consumers in general both demonstrating a level of confidence that is not as evident in other markets,” she said.
“Macau has much to offer the MICE market, the business community and leisure travellers, and we’re here in force at AIME to sell our message and our destination to conference organisers, travel wholesalers and business and leisure travellers.”
