Wha, like this ah nehs and ah bangalas very hard to get taxis
liao, but if they want go airport, I will take them.
Casinos for taxi drivers, tourism, hotel services, AP and many
other jobs in services is actually a blessing for us to make a
better living, but it also create social illness from all walk of
Life, not only the foreigners, I had local pax asking for
Eunos with just $10 left, I have local aunty telling me she sold
one condo to cover her loses, I have had a businessman who lost his
factory at AMK industrial park because of gambling and many more
stories, local and rich foreigners, once lost, still got assets to
cover them up, or get bank loan or worst, loan shark, but foreign
workers, once lost, good luck to them. It is a sharp double edge
knife, just that, you decide which side you want to be. For
TD, purely speaking, take the wise edge that cut deep to earn
profit from the casinos instead of blaming it for this and that,
which frankly speaking, you cannot stop them from blooming and
building more.
Because of the current 5 years monopolised contract with MBS and
RWS, our govt cannot issue permit to other casinos operators, many
las vegas operator and bosses are ever ready to build more casinos
in singapore, when that 5 years period is over, whereby, the
current 2 casinos had earned back their investment and profit,
you are going to see 2 to 3 more casinos on the horizon. Take
note.
Before the casinos were built, our tourism, hotels are in a dire
strait conditon, montly record only 20 to 30 thousands arrivals,
and getting lesser and lesser, more for business than holidays.
Today, you are getting millions even in a depressed global economic
condition.
