The mafia will be front and center.My buddy in Burriram,s old lady gambled away the house that he built.Forced to walk away.Some locals can't control the urge to gamble for some reason.Probably open in Pattaya ...that will explain why they are building so many condos.As soon as you cross the border into Cambodia there is a huge casino and 99% of the plates are Thai. Casinos will provide a few low paying jobs but may cause all sorts of other issues. Mind you there is widespread gambling exists in Tland all the time.

ChouDoufu Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 and all that juicy casino business goes to cambodia. might as well keep it in-house where you can tax it, get the benefits of employment, and skim a little off the top. if they're gonna gamble anyway, might as well have it in the open and legal.

That’s a good point, and while money laundering will be easy, I suspect it’s quite easy to launder money in Thailand with or without a casino. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
