Gaming giant makes another multi-million donation to the Chinese government as part of wider efforts to combat Covid-19. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Macau.- Galaxy Entertainment Group (GEG)<\/em><\/strong> has donated close to US$10million (MOP$75million) to mainland China to help with its fight against Coronavirus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The donation was made by the Galaxy Entertainment Group Foundation branch, with the money going directly to the Liaison Office of the Central People\u2019s Government in the Macau SAR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aim of the new donation is to provide care for healthcare workers, helping with public health promotion and supporting the medical and scientific research related to Covid-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Galaxy Chairman, Lui Che Woo, said: “As a Chinese enterprise, GEG endeavours to support our country in its related efforts against the epidemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“With the virus being effectively controlled in mainland China by its implementation of various prevention measures, their successful experience serves as a valuable lesson for other countries battling with Covid-19. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We hope to further contribute to this fight against the epidemic by subsidising related institutions and specialists in mainland China to carry out the relevant scientific and medical research.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sizeable donation follows previous multi-million contributions from GEG to other causes in the fight against Coronavirus, including one million masks to the Macau SAR, Zhuhai City and Hengqin New Area governments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The casino and hotel operator also has been assisting staff at its own venues with sanitisation measures<\/em><\/strong><\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
