The measures put in place by the Macao government since early 2020 – when the pandemic broke out – have resulted in very few Covid-19 cases and no deaths.
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.
