Popular Post webfact Posted February 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2023 A large number of people in Thailand’s middle-class and lower-income groups have been trapped in a dream of becoming rich overnight by winning a big lottery prize. The Government Lottery Office (GLO) holds its draw twice a month — on the 1st and the 16th — and issues 100 million tickets for each round. For many people, the two days when the lucky numbers to be drawn are special and full of hope. Such is the importance of the event that it is even aired live by state TV and by many social media platforms.

ed strong Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 The lottery generally just makes the poor poorer, and gives them false hope. Plus apart from thai boxing, every other form of betting is banned. Either ban it all or don't, confusing Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
