On Thursday, Las Vegas Sands stated that Marina Bay Sands Singapore is looking forward to build a casino and a convention complex in Thailand. The Vice President of Asiaone quotes, Krist Boo, said, , “We want to invest in Thailand if we are given permission. It must be the [same] kind of integrated resort as in Singapore. We have been searching for new investment not only in Thailand but also all places. Although, Thailand has no casino act yet, if this [is] about to happen, it is very interesting.”
The remarks were made to Thai writers going to the organization’s Marina Bay Sands coordinated resort in Singapore. In the past it has been generally reported that Sands officials have drawn nearer the Thai government about setting up shop there yet have been turned down. There can be no substantive move to build up a casino resort in Thailand without an adjustment in the nation’s laws. Presently the main legitimate betting permitted in the nation are two Royal turf and games clubs that permit wagering on stallion races, and the official lottery, actually led by Prime Minister, General Prayut Chan-ocha. General Prayut Chan-ocha is a resigned Thai armed force officer and leader of the National Council for Peace and Order. He has been in office since an overthrow on May 22, 2014. In August 2014, a military-overwhelmed national governing body, whose individuals were handpicked by Prayut, chose him as the new PM. A gathering of 12 National Reform Council individuals, whose essential objective is to draft another constitution for the nation, have recommended that casinos be permitted in the nation as an approach to expand tourism and the economy, yet the chamber’s administrator, Thienchay Kiranandana says the arrangement is not under thought. Police boss General Somyot Poompanmoung stood up to champion the thought yet the PM shot it down and taught him to quit advancing the thought, by article in the Bangkok Post a few days prior.
Sheldon Adelson said, “We remain focused on potential development opportunities in Japan, Korea and Vietnam. We believe our unique convention-based Integrated Resort development model could bring meaningful benefits to these countries in terms of business and leisure tourism, employment and economic growth.”
There is no casino act in Thailand. So, this thing is going to be very interesting. Also, it will boost the economy of Thailand to great heights. We are looking forward to this big change!
