SJM Resorts Supports Macau’s Community Exploration
SJM Resorts, a leading name in Macau’s gaming scene, is reaffirming its dedication to enhancing local tourism through continuous support of the Macau SAR Government’s Leisure Bus Community Exploration Programme. Launched in April, this initiative aims to integrate tourism with local community enrichment, fostering sustainable economic growth in Macau’s neighborhoods. The program has successfully attracted visitors to community areas, boosting opportunities for local businesses and promoting cultural exchanges between residents and tourists.
Expanding Services and Seasonal Promotions
Entering its second phase, set to run from July 17, 2026, to January 3, 2027, the program plans to expand services from Grand Lisboa Macau, offering more frequent departures during peak seasons like summer and major holidays. To increase public participation, SJM has introduced new promotional activities. Travelers on the Patane–Hong Kung Temple route receive complimentary vouchers, encouraging exploration of the San Ma Lo district and stimulating local spending.
Transforming Kam Pek Market into a Lifestyle Hub
As part of its district improvement efforts, SJM is focusing on Kam Pek Market, which lies near Hong Kung Temple and Grand Lisboa Macau. The market is set to feature diverse dining options soon. A notable addition is EL&N, the acclaimed café from London, opening in August. Known for its unique ambiance and quality offerings, EL&N has already established its presence at Grand Lisboa Palace Resort Macau, marking its second Greater China location.
Fostering Long-term Regional Growth
Through the continued success of the Leisure Bus programme and enhancements to Kam Pek Market, SJM Resorts is committed to enhancing the San Ma Lo district’s attractiveness. These efforts align with broader objectives to bolster community tourism, ensuring the sustained economic vitality of Macau’s neighborhood areas.
