Macao’s recent sustainable and diversified growth has led to a balanced industrial structure, reducing its dependence on the gaming sector and fostering other economic drivers.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) predicts Macao’s GDP will surge by 58.9 percent in 2023 and 20.6 percent in 2024, considering the low base. Service exports are projected to rise by 101.2 percent this year, with an inflation rate of 1.2 percent.
Macao’s diverse and dynamic environment is attracting an increasing number of top global talents, including professionals from world-class universities, bringing their expertise and unique experiences.
Christopher Chu, an American Chinese author, and his wife, Maggie Hoi, an associate professor at the University of Macau, have co-authored two books on Macao’s unique cultural heritage. Chu, a New York native with degrees in economics and psychology from Pitzer College in Claremont, California, and a Master of Philosophy from the University of Cambridge, Britain, appreciates Macao’s natural allure. He views it as the Greater Bay Area (GBA)’s historical gateway to the West, enriched by vibrant cultural influences from other Portuguese-speaking countries. This results in a diverse cultural tapestry, says Chu.
