The gambling industry has existed in Macau for more than 100 years. After 2002, when the gambling industry was opened to the foreign competition, the gambling industry developed with the speed faster than ever, and Macau has never depended on the gambling industry than now. The too much dependence on gambling industry causes some secret worries about Macau economy, social and economic problems. In 2014, the anti-corruption action became more violent. In such condition, the gambling industry of Macau was influenced greatly, and the economic situation deteriorated rapidly.
