Macau Casino Owner
Macau’s casinos had a rough second half of 2014, and there’s no immediate end in sight for their struggles. The major casino owners have now lost billions in the process. In 2002, Macau started issuing new gaming licenses. Wynn and Adelson were the first in line. Ho still owns 18 of the region's 27 casinos, but the new players are eager to grab more market share. Macau casino owner Lawrence Ho isn’t too pleased with several local gambling operators. Ho was critical of Crown Resorts, among several others, for adopting a new policy regarding marketing their businesses to potential patrons in mainland China. Of course, casino gambling is illegal in China, with Macau being the lone exception to the rule.

Casino Lisboa (Chinese: 葡京娛樂場) is a hotel casino in Sé, Macau, China. The casino is owned by the Sociedade de Turismo e Diversões de Macau (STDM), a Stanley Ho company.[1] This three-storey complex was built in late 1960s.[2]
The original casino and the 12-storey round hotel tower were built in 1970 by Stanley Ho, Teddy Yip, Yip Hon and Henry Fok. A 270-room extension was added in 1991 for a total of 927 rooms. In 2006, another extension, the Grand Lisboa, was built next to the current complex. Therefore, a total of 2,362 rooms are in place in Hotel Lisboa as of 2010. This expansion was partly done in competition with the newly opened Wynn Macau, located right next to the original Casino Lisboa.
