SANDS EXEC FLAGS RETHINK ON LOCAL-ONLY DEALER RULE Macau Business

Macau’s casinos face “some limit on the availability of people” unless the government changes a rule that only residents can be employed as croupiers, says LVS President and COO Mike Leven.  Leven told an investor forum in Las Vegas the Macau government would have to think about the bottleneck the rule has created.


Business Daily says the casinos would need up to 10,000 more dealers in Cotai by 2018 if the government approves all of the 3,366 new gaming tables the operators want to put in the eight new casino-resorts there.
