I don't think that the 200 million bet on the World Cup comes
mainly from Singaporeans. As in any form of gambling whether they
be shares, currencies, or other forms of betting, there will always
be foreginers foraying into the market to punt , also big timers
like bookies and other syndicaste sources. The average Singaporeans
have very little money to punt. For your information many have to
rely on CDC to tide over their temporary difficulties, l9000 sre
inarrears in their payment to HDB, many have to ask for bursaries
from their own constuiencies , banks have bad debts on credit cards
to the tune of four million. Where do Singaporeans find so
much money to gamble.
