David Chow: Mulling Fisherman’s Wharf project’s height limit

The government is still evaluating the height limit of casino operator Macau Legend Development Ltd.’s new hotel. A third party will be invited by the government to conduct an environmental impact report on the project, according to David Chow Kam Fai, Co-chairman and Chief Executive Officer of casino service firm Macau Legend Development.
“Building a 90 metre tall hotel is still within the legal legislation. However, if the government suddenly requires [us] to lower the height to 60 metres I would think that it is difficult to develop in Macau,” said Chow on Friday, as reported by local broadcaster TDM Chinese Radio, adding, “We will reconsider if we are going to develop the project.”
David Chow added that he wants the project to be considered fairly as the whole process was filed in accordance with law and “if the final decision is based upon populism, it would be the government’s choice”.
