Staff of Macau Chui is also involved in youth and education causes including: tutor in the Chamber of Commerce for International Youth member of the Youth Committee of the Macau Government headmaster of the Kiang Ping School President of the Youth Association of the Kiang Wu Hospital member and Standing Committee member of All-China Youth Federation Scandals Chui has been linked to several scandals during his time as a minister of Edmund Ho's administration. Most notably, the East Asian Games in 2005 were run under Chui's portfolio and put him in the midst of the Ao Man Long scandal. The games ran over budget by 70%. Ao allegedly received a MOP50 million (US$6.2 million) bribe in connection with the construction contract for the games' centerpiece, the Macau Dome indoor arena. Overall, that project wound up costing MOP640 million, MOP285 million over budget. As a result, he was extremely unpopular amongst the pro-democracy camp even before he was elected as the chief executive. In 2016, Chui was caught up in allegations of transferring Macau's reserves to the mainland. He was accused of favouritism after the Macau Foundation – a quasi-official foundation of which he is chairman and of which his brother heads the supervisory board – donated 100 million yuan ($15.4 million) of public money to Jinan University in Guangzhou, of which he is deputy head of the board. The Macanese government said that the donation was made in return for China's long-standing support to the SAR.
