Macau’s casino regulator said some senior officials had a meeting with Macau’s law enforcement police and security teams of six casino operators on March 13 to discuss issues including surveillance systems and “smart” game tables. The information was shared in a post on Saturday on the regulator’s WeChat social media account.
The Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau, a casino regulator, is known by the initials DICJ.
“The Judicial Police and DICJ have asked game operators to continue updating surveillance systems within their venues, and to achieve more comprehensive management with technologies such as increasing smart game tables,” the post said.
It added that it was intended to “enable casino operators to work with the government’s e-administrative functions while also increasing the efficiency of management.”
The report also noted that at the meeting, the parties discussed initiatives on the “smart DICJ” approach.
The talks included the scope and difficulties of cooperation on casino surveillance and information transmission technology.
Recently, several Macau operators have flagged plans to use Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) game tables.
On March 14, Bill Hornbuckle, chief executive and president of MGM Resorts International, the majority shareholder of Macau casino concession company MGM China Holdings Ltd., said in an investment forum that RFID chips used by the group’s Macau businesses for years are generally a good way to track the play of foreign customers as well as monitoring the financial integrity of games.
Mr Honbuckle added that foreign players visiting Macau casinos don’t like to enter rooms specifically designated for them, even though the Macau government’s plan offers casino operators the possibility of a low tax on total gaming income for such customers.
The DICJ noted in a post on Saturday that a casino ban was imposed on 2,302 people by regulators in 2023. The tally included 1,468 people who law enforcement reported engaging in illegal currency exchange activities.
