Trivia:

Macau is a tourism-based country, attracting more than 14 million tourists a year on a land area of just under 29 square kilometers, the size of Shinagawa Ward.

The economy is heavily dependent on IRs, including casinos, and it is said that 70% of government revenue comes from the casino industry.

The country's GDP per capita has been the highest in the world in the past, and medical care and education are free.

The number of tourists visiting Macau in 2019 reached a record high of 39.41 million, but in 2020, the number dropped sharply to 5.9 million due to entry restrictions implemented as a countermeasure against COVID-19.

About 80% of tourists are from mainland China, and about 90% are from Greater China, which includes Hong Kong and Taiwan.
