The Rise of China's Middle Class “The Biggest Story of Our Time” – Forbes Dec 2011
"The Chinese middle class is going to change the world. It's like saying how big a deal is the internet," Crown Chairman Mr. James Packer 60 Minutes, May 2012. Attention: Gaming stakeholders! If you’re a gaming stakeholder, you can’t afford to ignore this phenomenon. In fact, you need to embrace it and understand it. Most importantly plan for it. In Macau, a jurisdiction that’s grown to eclipse its North American counterparts and become the gambling mecca of the world, anticipation of this next phase of growth has the local gaming operators salivating with delight. What are the opportunities for you? China’s middle class is growing and their disposable income will continue to increase. There is a propensity to travel, to indulge, to aspire for the finer things in life. And now the rest of Asia is getting into the game. Singapore is being hailed as the best of breed for their two successful integrated resorts and its relationship with the regulators. The Philippines will have four new casinos soon. South Korea gaming is growing. Taiwan and Japan are hopeful. Laos and Cambodia want to make their own marks. Vietnam is getting ready! Are you ready? Want to tap into this growth?
