It added: “Mr Adelson has been receiving treatment for the injury and is expected to make a full recovery.

“He was not able to participate in the events celebrating the 10th anniversary of The Venetian Macao, but he is grateful for the support of everyone in attendance, especially those representing the government. He looks forward to returning to Macau in early 2018,” added the statement.
