Rua do Laboratório^
MPO sold its Rua do Laboratório project - an entry level residential redevelopment property located in northern Macau Peninsula - to a local Macau developer in April 2011.

The decision to dispose of Rua do Laboratório prior to the completion of its full development cycle was taken to unlock value and crystallise returns for its shareholders.
