Episode notes

Located in the Pearl River Delta, off the coast of the mainland of the People’s Republic of China, is Macau.

Macau is often overlooked due to its larger neighbor, Hong Kong, but Macau, despite being similar, has had its own unique history.

It remains unlike any other place in Asia, and indeed, the entire world.
