As Lunar New year, a traditional peak shopping season, is coming, Economic Services Bureau (DSE), Macao Government Tourist Office (DST), Transport Bureau (DSAT), Judiciary Police (PJ), Public Security Police Force (PSP), Macao Custom Service, Civic and Municipal Affairs Council (IACM) and Health Bureau (SS) were called for a meeting to discuss on the protection of consumer rights for inbound tourists and measures against ‘unscrupulous shops’.

Consumer Council reminds consumers that if anyone finds his or her consumer rights being infringed, he or she should file a complaint at the Council or other departments and provide all necessary detailed information. The Council will also assign its staff to provide services to consumers through its hotline during 11AM to 6PM each day during Chinese New Year holidays (1st to 4th February). Consumer Council hotline: 8988 9315.
