The Olympic torch will contine its international journey on Saturday through the streets of Macau, the final stop on the controversy-hit relay before it heads into mainland China.
The torch was flown into the former Portuguese colony late Friday after it was paraded through neighbouring Hong Kong, where it was greeted with celebration, and few of the protests over China's crackdown in Tibet and its human rights record. International Olympic Committee president Jacques Rogge conceded Friday that the atmosphere at the August Beijing Games will be largely determined by the situation in Tibet.
