smedly Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 would anyone seriously consider using the services of a Thai casino, really ?, these places need to be heavily regulated by government to stop cheating - good luck with that in Thailand just another way to extract money from foreigners 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailand Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 This was Thaksins baby back in 2006 before the coup in September, since he came back here we go again. Chinese money and expertise (Macau) will probably be the catalyst! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Espanol Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 6 hours ago, champers said: Chang will be paying for the casino in Pattaya. They own all the vacant land where it will be built and their own property arm will be developer. Together they will keep the profits, less taxes, of course. They need to get a shift on because Japan have plans in place to build 3 casinos as well, according to today's Bangkok Post. The last thing Pattaya needs is more hordes of Chinese flocking to the casinos to play. In the end Thailand may end up like Cambodia, and Pattaya like Sihanoukville. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PomPolo Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 13 hours ago, webfact said: This move is part of a broader strategy to position Thailand as a premier tourism hub Keep the good looking birds in the bars will do it for most people I suspect! As for the gambling it will probably go the same way as the cannabis did and they will ban it a year after it is legalised as one general said to another, maybe we should have stayed in the army and not bothered with this government stuff 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

still kicking Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 10 hours ago, ikke1959 said: Sure tourism will surge, but it shows again that Thailand has no clue about tourism. In the Western world casino's are legalized many years back, so influence on tourism will be not much, or only for the rich Chinese. It is more the profits of the owners that will be skyrocketing 80 % of punters in my city are Asians 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homburg Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 So Thailand legalised Weed in order to boost tourism and is now flip=flopping on that. It now proposes to legalise casinos for the same reason. I wonder how long before this too is flip-flopped. Will it be 1 month, six months or one year or even longer? The Book is now open. Place your (hypothetical) bets ladies and gentlemen.

ChaiyaTH Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 2 minutes ago, FritsSikkink said: You think there is no gambling in Thailand now? Yeah is like nothing changes except it then being official revenue, while in reality 'illegal casino money' stops coming in for what then comes into the 'legal casino money'. Perhaps a slight increase of keeping Thais here too instead of going to Cambodia or Laos ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john donson Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 all the illegal casinos protected by the men in brown will suffer? or they just move in to protect them from themselves in the new place ? in my local shopping mall, see men in brown visiting regularly, they don't buy, but have a chat... lol... time to pass the protection envelope weird that robbing's of this unsecured places do not happen daily it is not that the one security guard ,unarmed, not for the shop, but for the whole shopping mall will do anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
