"We welcome PacificNet's choice in choosing Zhuhai as an R&D technology development center," commented Chen HongHui, Deputy Mayor of Zhuhai." Zhuhai has been wisely chosen by some of the leading multinational companies as their R&D and production centers especially in the high tech industry."
"We were glad to choose Zhuhai as our technology R&D center as we were impressed by the availability of stable IT professionals, an educated and cost-effective workforce, a healthy and clean living environment, and continuous software and IT training offered by numerous local colleges and universities, as well as government incentives and supportive policies," said Tony Tong, CEO of PacificNet. "The synergistic effect between Zhuhai and Macau is a clear advantage for us as our Zhuhai R&D center serves as an effective back-office in supporting the sales and marketing efforts of PacificNet Games products in Macau as well as for the rest of Asia."
