2. About Macau
(Source: Macau Government Tourist Office)
Fishermen from Fujian and farmers from Guangdong were the first known settlers in Macau, when it
was known as Ou Mun, or "trading gate", because of its location at the mouth of the Pearl River
downstream from Guangzhou (Canton). During ancient times this port city was part of the Silk Road
with ships loading here with silk for Rome.
In the early 1550s the Portuguese reached Ou Mun, which
the locals also called A Ma Gao ("place of A Ma", in honor
of the Goddess of Seafarers) whose temple stood at the
entrance to the sheltered Inner Harbour. The Portuguese
adopted the name, which gradually changes into the name
Macau, and with the permission of Guangdong's
mandarins, established a city that within a short time had
become a major entry port for trade between China,
Japan, India and Europe.
Time
Macau is eight hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time.
Language
Chinese
and
Portuguese
are the official languages, Cantonese being most widely spoken. The official
languages are used in government departments in all official documents and communications. English
is generally used in trade, tourism and commerce.
Currency
The
Pataca
(MOP$) is divided into 100 avos and it is Macaus official currency. There are banknotes
and coins in the following denominations:
Coins: 10, 20 and 50 avos; 1, 2, 5 and 10 Patacas. Banknotes: 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 Patacas.
By the decision of the Government the Pataca is linked to the Hong Kong dollar (HK$) which is
accepted as currency in Macau. The exchange rate is MOP$102.62= HK$100.00. There is an
acceptable variation up to 10%. Roughly
12 Patacas
is equivalent to
1 EURO
and
8 Patacas
is
equivalent to
1 US Dollar
.
Climate
Located in a monsoon region at the south of the tropic of Cancer, Macaus is hot and humid. Even with
the temperatures reaching 10篊 in the winter season (January and February) due to the northern winds
from Siberia, summer is the longest season of all with common heavy rains from May to September.
Dress Code
Respecting the events character Business Attire is required for all the activities (including networking
functions). Please be aware the exhibition hall will be air-conditioned during the show open days, so it
may be wise to bring warm clothes with you.
For leisure occasions, even in the casinos, the dress code it is usually casual. Cotton or light clothing is
recommended for summer conditions and woolen clothing for the winter.
Electricity
Electricity in Macau is at 220V, 50Hz. The power plugs used in Macau are of the three-pin, square-
shaped or round-shaped type. It is suggested to check before using an electrical appliance.
