Controversies[edit]
On 12 November 2008, the gates were locked to the construction labour force from a variety of Asian countries as projects were suspended. Hsin Chong, the project manager for the Venetian, laid off approximately 400 staff. As many workers had been there for less than two years, no severance was due. The next day, Sands' president for Asia announced that up to 11,000 workers would be losing their jobs as the company was halting building projects in Macao.[9]
In 2010 the Chinese press reported that as part of a 'sex-trade crackdown' authorities had found more than 100 prostitutes inside the casino.[10]
