Our presence here is very relevant, it is a signal that we are giving to the issuing market as a whole,” said the representative of Portugal Tourism in China, Tiago Brito, speaking to journalists during the Macau International Travel Expo (MITE), held in Macau from the 30th of June to the 2nd of July.
