Thailand Looks To Use Casinos To Boost Tourism

August 5, 2024 at 12:36 EDT By Spencer Howard

Skift: "Thailand is on its way to legalizing casinos, a move seen as crucial to revitalize the country’s tourism sector and attract substantial foreign investment."

"Thailand’s Council of State has unveiled a draft bill, inviting public feedback until August 18. The draft bill’s next steps involve cabinet approval, parliamentary debate, and potential amendments. The 22-page document outlines plans to integrate casinos into large entertainment complexes, echoing a model used successfully in Macau."

Points Wire Note:

This comes on the heels of the UAE announcing plans to legalize casinos.
