Macau authorities arrest South Korean casino worker by luring Chinese gamblers |
The casino industry in Macau used to recruit special junkets to target VIP gamblers from mainland China and attract them to Macau casinos, which accounted for more than 50 percent of the revenue generated by Macau casinos.
Due to the Chinese government's anti-corruption crackdown, the majority of VIP gamblers and junkets reported a sharp decline in business. Casinos in neighboring countries such as Korea, the Philippines, and Vietnam are quickly seizing this opportunity and targeting VIP gamblers in mainland China. Casinos in Korea have come up with many attractive plans to attract gamblers from mainland China and revitalize the Korean gambling industry.
Macau authorities recently arrested a total of 13 Korean casino workers accused of running a campaign to lure gamblers to Korea. Korean casino workers are just a few hours away by plane from China, and these 13 are paraHe was accused of working for Isis Inc. and Grand Korea Inc. (GKL). Authorities have also arrested a number of junket operators accused of cooperating with Korean casinos to help build their businesses. Korea currently has a total of 17 casinos, and only one of them allows locals to gamble.
All other casinos are specifically targeted at tourists because Korea's gambling laws do not allow locals to gamble.
The growth of the Korean casino industry is directly related to tourism, and it is also one of the reasons why casinos are actively campaigning and targeting gamblers in mainland China. Paradise Inc. has denied claims that the arrested casino workers were part of their pay.
Thirteen casino employees were accused of luring Chinese gamblers with attractive packages that included airport pickups and drops, free hotel stays, and custom casino tours along with special entertainment facilities. Chinese authorities have previously banned all advertising at gambling facilities promoting casinos outside China and are one of the main reasons casinos can rely on sending marketing consultants directly to Macau to secure new customers. The Korean government encourages tourism to China and expects about 10 million tourists to visit the mainland every year from 2020. Casinos in Korea are interested in popular market gamers because they believe the mass market has a lot of potential in Korea, not pursuing the general VIP customer base in Macau.

The Junket Association rejoices in the Macau Government's tightening of regulations |
Macau's junket association is having trouble attracting VIP gamblers to casinos as anti-corruption crackdowns have severely affected businesses. Over the past few months, many junkets have considered shutting down operations, citing a lack of revenue.
Last month, the government decided to crack down on the junket industry and impose tighter restrictions after another corruption scandal was highlighted by junket operator Dore Entertainment Co. Ltd. Junkit, which runs a VIP room in Win Macau, announced that the cage operator had stolen more than HK$400 million based on a total of 49 complaints filed with authorities. The Macau government has decided to introduce stricter regulations to control the junket industry, and Macau junket promoters and cooperatives have only asked to review the same regulations, throw their support behind the new ones and put in place a process for the government to always have clear communication.
Top executives from the junket association attended a meeting with economic finance minister Lionel Leung to discuss the case of Dore Cage custodian and how the new policy will help prevent such theft. Executives of the junket association also spoke about the future of junket operators in Macau and how they would cope with the shortage of VIP gamblers.
The junket executives met with Long and legislator Zheng Anting to confirm that they are in favor of the new regulations and appreciate the issuance of the Game Inspection Bureau and the new regulations designed to protect their interests. In a statement, Kuk Chi Chong, President of the Society of Promoters and Collaborators of Macau, said, "We have discussed this matter with the Minister. The Minister said the revision of the law may begin in the future to optimize the management of the industry. We hope that the Minister will be able to communicate with us more when he revises the law in the future." Macau's October gaming sales fell the least compared to the last 17 months, a positive sign for casino and junket operators. Casino shares rose in Hong Kong and junket operators maintained a positive outlook that the VIP market would begin to recover quickly. SunCity Group, Macau's largest junket operator, is confident about the future as CEO Alvin Chow believes the VIP market is much healthier than before and has already bottomed out in 2015, with the only way forward.
