Formerly a colony of Portugal (until 1999), MACAU is now a special administrative region of China. Portuguese and Cantonese are official languages.

Television signals can be received from China, as well as nearby Hong Kong, so Doctor Who could have been seen from June 1973 onwards (when RTV transitioned from cable to terrestrial broadcasts), albeit in English.

It's likely that one or both of the Peter Cushing Dalek movies was shown there, as movies with Chinese subtitles were often sourced from Hong Kong, where the films had played in 1969 and 1974.
