Macau Government Tourism Office (MGTO) Director Maria Helena de Senna Fernandes said yesterday that the travel sector was discussing the arrangements for possible tour cancellations resulting from the government’s new travel alert system, adding that her office was paying close attention to the discussions.

The government published the Macau Special Administrative Region (MSAR) Travel Alert System in the Official Gazette on Monday, stating that the system, promulgated as an executive order, will become effective on March 7.

The three-level system covers 77 foreign countries and regions which are popular, according to the government, with local travellers such as East Timor, Fiji, France, Japan, Liechtenstein, Portugal, South Africa, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), UK and US.
