Dr. Wilfred Wong, president of Sands China Ltd., said: "First of all, our special thanks go to the Macao SAR government for their leadership in keeping the community safe from COVID-19. Throughout this challenging period, Sands China's commitment to Macao has remained unwavering, and we are looking forward to the launch of our newest themed destination – The Londoner Macao. Our company's founder, the late Mr. Adelson, was particularly proud of the Sands China Ltd. team and our accomplishments. He was adamant, even during the most difficult times last year, that the company should do all that it can to support team members, their families, and the Macao community at large. It gives me great pleasure therefore to announce that, in Mr. Adelson's memory, the company will pay a discretionary allowance in appreciation of team members' support, hard work and personal sacrifices."
