Getting into Singapore's casinos is becoming increasingly difficult

Singapore is a developed nation where gambling is allowed. However, the government of the country is trying to prevent the development of gambling addiction by all available legal means. The latest innovation was the increase of fees for those wishing to visit casinos. It was far from small before. However, now the amounts are so significant that the owners of establishments will obviously soon suffer losses from the sharply reduced flow of visitors.

Now the cost of admission to a gambling establishment for a single visit will be as follows $150 a day! If a player wants to buy a season ticket for a free visit to the casino for a year, then you will have to lay out already 3,000 dollars! By the way, one dollar of this country is equal to about 70 cents American. Thus, gamblers will have to splurge "grown up". As a percentage, the cost of visiting the casino has increased by 50%.

As the country's authorities assure, the new rules will not only increase the flow of money into the state budget, but also protect a significant number of local residents from gambling. The bet is made on visitors from neighboring states, who will want to visit the casinos in Singapore. That is, casual visits to casinos (as they say, "on the road") by locals will now be excluded, it can cost a lot for their budget. It is not known what such an initiative will result in, but the fight against gambling addiction is always welcome.

However, we should not forget that along with positive aspects, negative ones may appear. In particular, a large number of underground casinos may appear in the country, where entrance fees will not be charged. As a consequence, ordinary citizens will have the opportunity to save money. As a result, there will be a lot of cheated and robbed gamers. There are two sides to every coin, so you should always consider both when making serious and important decisions.
