At the time, the report claimed that Apple had not finalized a location for the upcoming store.

Macau being one of the world's richest cities ('https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macau'), you might be compensated very well tho. Don't forget to brush up on your Cantonese, Mandarin and Portuguese..... :D
The Macao Apple Store is under construction/decoration, located in the Galaxy Mega resort Phase II. The construction includes a structural modification to the floor slab (to accommodate Apple signature glass staircase), so the construction took a bit longer than the other shops (those opened in May 2015).
BTW, Macao is a fine place to live and have good people to make friend with (and fine food of course!). (I am from Hong Kong...:-) ). And Portuguese is a beautiful language worth to learn (though we rarely use Portuguese in macao)
No one really speaks Portuguese anymore in Macau, so no worries.
Still a small population of Portuguese speaking Macanese you may encounter. Though they can speak fluent Cantonese or English, talk to them in Portuguese are definitely benifitial. :-).
Yup, no worries. Apart from legal or formal governmental issues, this is the popularity of language in Macao : Cantonese-Mandarin-English-Portuguese .
