The British branding of the Londoner Macao casino resort (pictured), which has a first-phase opening today (Monday, February 8), will be easily and instantly understood by visitors from mainland China, says Glenn McCartney, the United Kingdom’s honorary consul in Macau, and associate professor of Integrated Resort and Tourism Management at the University of Macau.
“It’s absolutely important that the Chinese traveller understands” a resort brand or other tourism brand, the academic told GGRAsia. In that regard, the Londoner Macao is “very clear”, he stated.
“You can invent your own branding” for a tourism resort, but “that takes some time to ramp up,” he added.

A United States-based lawyer has accused her estranged husband, Adetokunbo Daramola, of plans to illegally acquire their jointly-owned property in Lagos.
Katherine Daramola, 57, said her husband and his mistress are conniving to perpetrate the act.
The property in question is a twin duplex at Magodo, an high-brow estate in Lagos.
Allegations
In 2010, Mr Daramola partly relocated to Nigeria where he began executing contracts for the Lagos Inland Revenue Service (
LIRS) and some local government areas in the state, Mrs Daramola told PREMIUM TIMES in an interview.
The couple had earlier acquired plots of land at the Magodo GRA where they built the duplex.
We know antiretroviral therapy can prevent HIV infection, but can natural biological substances do the same? The results of a recent scientific trial have answered this question: Yes, using broadly neutralising antibodies. But what are broadly neutralising antibodies? How do they work? And when will the average person get access to them? Amy Green breaks down the science.
Results of a “proof of concept” study presented at the virtual 4th Research for HIV Prevention Conference last week showed that one particular broadly neutralising monoclonal antibody (bNab) – called VRC01 – prevented HIV infection in over 70% of people exposed to strains of HIV that is sensitive to this particular bNab.
