Crime-case statistics recorded by the police show year-on-year decreases in full-year 2022 in a number of crime categories. The data show Macau remains a secure and safe city, Secretary for Security Wong Sio Chak said on 3 March. The tally of all forms of reported crime in Macau in 2022 was down 13.9 percent year-on-year, to 9,799 cases, according to police statistics regarding last year’s enforcement effort. The data was released during the first face-to-face press conference held by the Office of the Secretary for Security since the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic in early 2020.
