By GlobalDataMacau Legend co-chairman, executive director and CEO David Chow said: "There are two very important messages for our investment in Cape Verde.
"Firstly, it is a great opportunity for a Macau enterprise to be able to make use of the Sino-Portuguese platform to expand our business overseas.
"Secondly, this project follows the China Government’s national policy ‘one belt, one road’, a strategy to help position Macau as one of the important cities on the Maritime Silk Road, which shall be vanguard to lead Macau small and medium enterprises to expand from Macau."
