(Macau).- The secretary for economy and finance, Francis Tam Pak Yuen, estimates that the monthly gaming revenue will average us$ 2.5 billion in 2012. These figures suggest average monthly tallies nine percent lower than 2011.

He was quoted by local media as saying that “compared to the actual growth of last year, this [figure] is a conservative estimation.”

“Looking back from January to May, we actually reached the level of us$ 2.93 billion, us$ 3 billion [per month]. Compared to the previous two to three quarters, this is a steady performance. However, we estimate the number will not be too big [this year],” Mr Tam was quoted as saying.
