Bosses send foreign workers to gamble

[KopiKat]

Simple solution:

Only exempt tourists and business visitors from the daily levy. Everyone else, whether citizen, PR, student visa, employment pass, S-pass, work permit, long-term social visit pass etc should pay the daily levy.

This way the casinos rob the visitors and send them home, while those who are here for the long term, whether to study, work etc will not gamble and go broke, at least not as much. It is high time for the CRA to acknowledge that the current rules do not go far enough to mitigate the social problems the casinos are creating.

Workers especially are a problem - a broke worker is not productive, and the company will have lost perhaps 2 years in training him. It's a lose-lose for the manufacturing economy.

A very good suggestion! Any way to forward it to the relevant decision makers for their consideration?

<Joke> : I don't see why foreign workers should get this 'benefit' to enter the casino for free when the citizens have to pay to enter!
