With or without casino they can still find other mean if they want to gamble. Maybe all taxi companies should submit their drivers name list to casino to block them. exactly , .....and that is why I mentioned legal or illegal gambling. I for one am able to see the more good coming from placing them on a block list ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lala81 Hypersonic July 15, 2015 Share July 15, 2015 If they don't go casino, they'll be betting on horses or playing 4d/toto. Betting websites (non local) are also easily accessible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it suits them, govt shd not decide for me. When it doesn't suit them, govt shd decide for me. Like as if there will be no gambling issues if the casinos never appeared. When I was working near Harbourfront area (formerly World Trade Ctr, if you are old enough), you should see the hordes of gambling uncles and aunties going onto those cruises (gambling ships), literally boarding robbers' ship. Coaches to Genting were also doing a roaring business. There are mechanisms in place. If your loved ones have gambling issues, write in and ban him/ her before the inner demon takes over. We are a mature nation mah...since when need govt to tell us what we can or cannot do? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueray Hypersonic March 27, 2018 Share March 27, 2018 More Singaporeans gambling but number of hardcore gamblers holds steady SINGAPORE – More Singapore residents could be gambling and probable hardcore gamblers are betting much more than before, although their numbers have held steady, according to the National Council on Problem Gambling’s (NCPG) latest survey. Probable hardcore gamblers – or probable pathological gamblers, those with the most severe form of the addiction – made up 0.1 per cent of the 3,000 Singapore residents aged 18 and above polled in the NCPG’s 2017 Gambling Participation survey. https://www.todayonline.com/singapore/more-singaporeans-gambling-hardcore-gamblers-hold-steady No increase in gambling addiction after casinos opened The setting up of the two casinos here in 2010 did not lead to more Singaporeans getting hooked on gambling, as many had feared before they opened at Marina Bay Sands and Resorts World Sentosa. The pathological and problem gambling rate among Singaporeans and permanent residents was 0.9 per cent in the 2017 survey by the National Council on Problem Gambling. It inched up from 0.7 per cent in the 2014 survey, but the change is not statistically significant, the council's spokesman said. The survey is done every three years to find out the extent and pattern of gambling here. The latest study was released yesterday. http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/no-increase-in-gambling-addiction-after-casinos-opened ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
