Thailand's Labor Minister Backs Legalization of Casinos
Thailand's government, led by the Phua Thai party, is contemplating the introduction of casinos and entertainment complexes, with the country's Minister of Labor publicly endorsing the idea of legalizing gambling activities. Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn emphasized that legalizing activities like casino gambling would yield significant economic benefits.
The explicit backing for casino legalization from Thailand's labor minister indicates bipartisan support, as both major political parties in the ruling coalition government are in favor of the plan. Phiphat proposed establishing casinos in peripheral provinces across all five regions of Thailand, suggesting that five gambling establishments could generate a minimum of 50,000 jobs.
The House of Representatives committee tasked with evaluating the feasibility of legalizing casinos in Thailand is set to present its findings to parliament soon. Based on the study's outcomes, authorities will make a decision regarding the legalization of gambling activities.
