Abstract

Purpose

This paper examines the changes in Macao's gaming public policy following the 2022 revision of the gaming law. The revision introduces more regulations on the gaming industry and highlights the gaming industry's contribution to economic diversification, anti-money laundering and national security. The paper analyzes the economic, cultural and political factors that motivated these changes and evaluates the effectiveness of the new gaming public policy.

Design/methodology/approach

This paper compares the different versions of Macao's gaming laws and the gaming laws of Nevada and New Jersey, using a qualitative approach to interpret the meanings behind the law text.

Findings

The paper reveals that Macao's gaming public policy has changed significantly. The revised policy focuses more on economic diversification than the growth of the gaming industry and imposes more responsibilities on the gaming operators. It predicts that Macao's gaming industry will face more difficulties in increasing its market share in the next decade.

Practical implications

The findings of this paper can help the Macao government assess its gaming public policy and other governments learn from the complex situation when developing their public policies.

Social implications

The findings of this paper can enhance the understanding of Macao's gaming laws and the reality of Macao's gaming industry.

Originality/value

This paper is the first in academia to address Macao's new public policy toward gaming.

澳门博彩业公共政策的新发展:影响与成效
本文探讨了澳门博彩法 2022 年修订后博彩公共政策的变化。修订后的博彩法引入了更多关于博彩业的法规,并强调了博彩业对经济多元化、反洗钱和国家安全的贡献。本文分析了促使这些变化的经济、文化和政治因素,并评估了新博彩公共政策的有效性。本文比较了澳门博彩法与内华达州和新泽西州博彩法的不同版本,采用定性方法解读法律文本背后的含义。修订后的政策更注重经济多元化而非博彩业的增长,并对博彩运营商施加了更多责任。社会意义本文的研究成果可以加深人们对澳门博彩法律和澳门博彩业现实的了解。原创性/价值本文是学术界第一部论述澳门博彩业新公共政策的论文。
