All public entities in Macao will resume normal operations today, after a torrid summer when the city has suffered numerous mass-testings and partial lockdowns.

The Public Administration and Civil Service Bureau (SAFP) said that after returning to normal operations, public entities should adopt measures to avoid crowding as much as possible, such as by providing online and phone appointments. 

The SAFP added that they should also implement Covid-19 prevention measures for members of the public, including requiring them to wear their facemask and maintain on-site social distancing, as well as checking their Macao Health Code.

In addition, the statement noted, the public entities should check and ensure their respective service providers, such as cleaning workers and security guards have undergone nucleic acid tests (NATs) in accordance with the Health Bureau’s (SSM) Covid-19 prevention and control measures.

The Municipal Affairs Bureau (IAM), Cultural Affairs Bureau (IC) and Sports Bureau (ID) announced that their respective public facilities, such as libraries, free sports grounds, children’s playgrounds, outdoor fitness equipment, barbecue pits and sports facilities, reopen to the public today.

According to the IC, Mong-Ha Villas, the Old Courthouse, Macau Contemporary Art Centre-Navy Yard No 1 and No 2, Taipa Houses-Museum, Zheng Guanying Memorial Museum, and Ye Ting’s Former Residence remain closed for the time being.

The IAM said that people can make appointments for IAM facilities, such as barbecue pits in Hac Sa Beach via the IAM advance booking system for green facilities.

The ID said that the swimming pools of D. Bosco College Sports Centre, and Taipa Northeast Sports Centre remain closed. People using the bureau’s facilities must show their negative NAT result valid for three days, wear their facemask, undergo a temperature check, scan the respective venue QR code and submit their Macao Health Code when entering the premises.

The Macao Monetary Authority (AMCM) said that starting today all financial institutions, such as banks, resume normal operations.

During the early days of the resumption of normal operation, more residents may visit bank branches so the AMCM has required the city’s financial institutions to take measures to channel the flow of customers, including distributing queueing tickets, assisting customers in using self-service machines, and setting up counters for senior citizens, so as to avoid crowds on the premises, The Macau Post Daily reported.
