While the Grand Lotus – Macao’s highest decoration – was not awarded this year, ten outstanding citizens and a dozen organisations were honoured for their service to society.
People, teams and organisations in Macao who have worked immensely hard and shown incredible courage during the COVID-19 pandemic are given special awards by the Chief Executive and his government.
Chief Executive Ho Iat Seng pledged to intensify Macao’s efforts to revive its economy during his Policy Address for the Fiscal Year 2021. He also said that the protection of residents’ lives and health remains a ‘top priority’.
