June 10, 2013 – To enhance safety awareness and emergency readiness among its team members, Galaxy Entertainment Group (“GEG”) and Macau Fire Services Bureau co-organized a fire evacuation drill at Galaxy Macau™ on Friday morning. Participated by more than 680 team members, the evacuation drill aims to ensure that the participants were familiar with the emergency evacuation procedures. Over 30 firefighters and 6 emergence vehicles also took part in the fire drill to assist in the evacuation and examine the fire safety equipments at the resort property.

The drill began with a simulated fire broke out at the primary air unit room on the lower ground floor of Galaxy Macau. After the alarms have been activated, the security department immediately informed the Fire Services Bureau of the incident; meanwhile, the participating team members put down their work to evacuate through the nearest exits in an orderly manner, following the instruction from the security department.
