Having a casino doesn’t mean it will become conduit for money laundering.

Singapore has casino and they are doing a great job keeping out the riff raff 

Are you sure?

Yes, keeping out the riff-raff, but....

I read sometime back that most of the Burmese Generals launder gamble in Singapore and have other interests there.

Singapore does excellent PR work on being a clean city. And on the whole it is.

But it is not quite so squeaky clean when big bucks are involved.

It is the only place where I have lived, where I was also offered drugs. In the pub, next to my apartment.

Even here on Samui and when I lived in Bangkok - nothing.

Just like the pile of feast(dumped on the street) attracting all of the cockroaches.

And casino, usually Sucks Out local money to outside.

So some smart municipality rejects it(as happened in the City of Yokohama, Japan years ago).

They are certainly clever.
