Macau is one of the most law-abiding territories in Asia. It is well known for its gambling industry, but organized crime and fixing is very rare. Most of the casinos are owned by well known companies. And perhaps that is the reason why many of the Chinese and other gamblers prefer less well known destinations such as Cambodia and Vietnam.
One of the reasons for this is they evade taxes casinos pay million in taxes, so instead of paying the government they prefer to pay corrupt government officials and the police officials so they can evade arrest, their underground operations is hard to track because the authorities that supposed to catch them are the one protecting their casinos, it's their cash cow of course.
It would be getting good protection from top officials and due to which only such things could exist for so long and so much billions of dollars’ worth of bets was happening, else it would not have been possible to do it all alone. Money is something which even the officials get corrupt to accept bribe and fill their own pockets.
