MGM China Promotes Responsible Gaming via Interesting and Diversified Initiatives
With the aim to build a harmonious, healthy and sustainable society, MGM has been working with different stakeholders in Macau to promote responsible gambling (RG) through various initiatives. The Company has unveiled the “MGM Financial Education School Tour 2024 – Hero of Egg Waffle” earlier, aiming to convey positive messages such as the prevention of gaming and financial awareness to the students. This initiative features interesting interaction and vivid story from the perspective of education and prevention, allowing students to have rational financial plans.
Tian Han, EVP of Gaming Operations & Strategic Marketing at MGM, said: “MGM organizes a series of RG promotional activities with different themes for all ages in society. We launched the ‘MGM Financial Education School Tour’ in 2023, presenting a musical drama every year addressing current social issues such as blind box purchases and online game recharging, helping students develop a proper concept of money and values in a fresh and fun way. The school tour visits 20 local primary and secondary schools, helping promote to more than 3000 students in every academic year.”
Aside from primary and secondary students, MGM is also conveying RG information to university students in a bid to make further contribution to local youth’s growth. Recently, MGM has signed a memorandum of understanding with City University of Macau (CityU) to inaugurate the “Responsible Gaming Project at Campus”. Under this partnership, MGM will host RG training and lectures at the university campus, enabling the students who have completed the training to act as RG ambassador in MGM’s RG promotional events. The project aims to encourage students to gain a deeper understanding of RG’s importance in Macau while building a broader and more robust safety net in the community.
Beyond promoting RG in schools, MGM is also committed to raise the public awareness of RG. The Company recently launched the “Photo Exhibition of Gaming Industry and Responsible Gaming Promotions in Macau – MGM Special Session”, revolving around three topics – “History of Gaming Industry Development,” “History of Responsible Gaming” and “Introduction to MGM’s Responsible Gaming Initiatives”. The exhibition showcased the evolution of Macau’s gaming industry and the city’s social efforts on RG, attracting audiences from local associations, gaming industry as well as residents and tourists. Additionally, MGM joined forces with Macao New Chinese Youth Association to hold the “Responsible Gaming City Orienteering Competition” with 30 participating teams. The competition required participants to finish a series of games and challenging tasks and arrive at the service point of a designated RG stakeholder within the specified time period, so that they can acquire RG knowledge of RG through sports competition.
