旅游博彩业是澳门主要经济动力之一。得益于旅游博彩业的不断发展,澳门经济保持了高速增长。2013年,访澳旅客人数及其人均消费额不断增长,博彩业收入再创新高。从澳门三大客源市场来看,中国内地旅客增幅最大,中国香港与中国台湾旅客数量有所下降。访澳旅客人均消费增长13。7%,但是考虑旅游消费物价水平的提高,其实际消费增幅不大。旅客总体消费结构比较稳定,其中购物消费所占比例最高而娱乐消费比例较低。原居地不同的旅客消费结构与购物消费结构均有较大差别。访澳旅客总体逗留时间不长,较高的住宿费用抑制了留宿旅客的数量,加上观光点稍显不足,旅客难以长时间停留。澳门要逐渐发展成为世界旅游休闲中心,还需要长期合理的系统性规划。
<<The tourism and gaming industry is one of the main economic driving forces in Macau. With the continuous development of the industry,Macau’s economy has maintained a rapid growth. In the first three quarters of 2013,visitor arrivals and per-capita spending of visitors were growing. Gaming revenue has reached a new height. The biggest increase in numbers of visitor arrivals was from Mainland China,whereas the number of visitors from the territories of Hong Kong and Taiwan declined. The per-capita spending of visitors has increased by 14.4%. However,given the price level of tourism consumption has increased,the actual growth was not significant. The total consumption structure of visitors has been relatively stable. Consumption in shopping has accounted for the highest proportion,whereas the proportion of consumption in entertainment has been low. The tourism consumption structures and shopping consumption structures of visitors from different places of residence were quite different. Because of the high accommodation costs and the insufficient sightseeing spots,the average length of stay time of visitors has been short. To develop into a world tourism and leisure centre,Macau needs a reasonable long-term systematic planning.
