    To build or not to build

    The debate for having a integrated resort with a casino has once again brought back up in Parliament. The public opinions is divided into 2. Those who agreed to have 1 and those who don't agreed. I'm belong to neither group, anyway I strongly believe having 1 will boost our economy and creating more jobs for our fellow Singaporeans BUT will there be a increase in the social problems? I don't know. Many foresee there will be.

    As the figures showed, $1 - 2 billions were spent on oversea gambling. (Wow, that is alot of $$$)
    Look at the Ang Pao TOTO, so many ppl queued hoping to strike big. Every weekend, we will see ppl queuing to buy 4D.

    Anyway the Government will decide to build or not to build in April, till tend we shall wait for the decision.

    Pros
    1. More tourists to Singapore
    2. More activities in Singapore
    3. Boost in Singapore economy
    4. Job creation

    Cons
    1. Increase in social problems (broken families, gambling addiction)
    2. Tanish of the Singapore Brand?


    The above comments are all based on my personal point of views on the integrated casino.
