Not sure what new Macau is - I guess an area they are hoping to build up to a Vegas level. When I was there in 2002, it was already known that Macau was the "Vegas of the East." However, as you know from traveling to Las Vegas itself, it's a monumental stretch to put the two in the same category. I remember a few nice casinos with smoky lounges and floors. But the surrounding areas were kind of like Kowloon, at least in some places. If smart, and with all the money they have, China will make a new Macau - probably more of what you're seeing. Lots of buildings need to be torn down. Hope it can rival Vegas, but Las Vegas is special, as you know.
