Bangkok: Senate study casino impact

The Senate's special committee, studying the government's plan to allow new entertainment complexes to include a casino, resolved yesterday to establish two subcommittees to conduct a more in-depth exploration of the plan's potential negative impacts.

The first subcommittee has been tasked with examining possible adverse effects of the entertainment complex and casino project on society, legal proceedings, the environment, urban planning, the constitution, national development strategies, and the process of conducting a public referendum, as required for major policy changes under Section 77 of the constitution.

The second subcommittee will study the potential economic impacts of the project. This may also extend to online gambling, which remains illegal in Thailand and would need to be legalised if it were to be included as part of the entertainment complex.
