The beach resort in the south of Thailand has regained its popularity 1 year after Tsunami incident. The increase in demand for traveling to and from Bangkok and Macau in 2004 has increased 131.22% over the previous year. 48,949 Thai visitors to Macau during January until October reflects a growth figure of 63.66% and by the end of 2005, it is expected that Thai visitors to Macau will reach 60,000.
Overall, number of visitors to Macau has increased by 40.25 % in 2004 (as compared to 2003). Major contribution to high number of visitors is from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, USA and ASEAN countries. By 2007, it is expected that the growth will continue at the rate of 14% year on year.
Macau modern tourist attraction is geared toward “European flavor in the center of Asia” concept. Praised by UNESCO as a World Cultural and Natural Heritage since July 2006, Macau tourism has grown tremendously. Special campaign deal to be staged at Macau Tower during December 20, 2005 through February 7, 2006 is another attractive event. Macau Tower will become The mini Historic Centre of Macau that incorporates 16 miniature heritage sites with Hello Kitty as a mascot that will introduce each site and meet and greet tourists. Visitors can collect a Hello Kitty Passport at the start of the journey to Macau Tower, follow the map through each of the sites, delve into their journey and significance, and together reveal answers to the trivia quiz in the Passport. Then they are to select the correct answer by stamping the booklet with thematic hello kitty emblems, and an exclusive souvenir will await participants at the end of the adventure.
Hello Kitty studio is another point of interest where Hello Kitty and Cinamoroll will appear at designated times to allow visitors to take pictures with them. We do hope that family traveling to Macau will enjoy, learn and get memorable souvenirs from the trip to Macau.
