Macau casino gambling revenue jumped to a record last month boosted by an increase of visitors during China’s week-long National Day holiday.
Revenue from casino companies in the former Portuguese colony rose 42 percent to 26.9 billion patacas ($3.4 billion) in October, the city’s Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau said in a statement yesterday. The pace rebounded from September’s 39 percent, the slowest in eight months.
