Singapore can consider issuing 6 more casino licences but today, no takers.
With only 15 mio international travellers recorded visiting Singapore in 2024 as compared to Thailand's expected 60 mio by 2030 - a far cry.

If Singapore build 6 more casinos, then we are becoming like Macau liao. That would mean a lot of smes cannot compete and dead liao.

6 more ? That's crazy ! My mum lost her bungalow because of visiting casino, dun even think about one more. If she had sold it and move to a terrace house instead of casino visits, that will be the same as winning the jackpot at the casino. Dun even need to go there to strike the jackpot, isn't it ?
It is so evil to build casino, the weak targeted victims will be the wives of the rich fellows here. Dun believe me u see later.
Wonder who is the lanchiao fellow who suggested building casinos here? Anyone knows ?

I dunno if she is well known, but she ever appeared in local Chinese Shinmin paper interviews before. btw, do u know who suggested the casino build here ? It was certainly not LKY, as he ever shown his disapproval in the papers before. Share with me so I can tell my GOD tonight.

The idea came from Tony Tan and he is largely responsible for many broken families and many bankruptcies
