About 110,000 residents went to top up their consumption subsidy smartcard on Monday, the first day of the procedure, according to a statement from Economic Services Bureau (DSE), as the government’s second phase subsidy scheme giving each resident MOP 5,000 to spend locally begins on Saturday.

Some MOP 1.46 billion from the public coffers have already been injected into local businesses in the first month and a half of the government’s consumption subsidy smartcard scheme.
A 36-year-old jobless local man who offered to sell his government-issued consumption subsidy smartcard through a social media chat group, was arrested on Wednesday.
