Bo Bernhard says Bangkok could surpass Singapore as a gaming market
Bo Bernhard, vice president of economic development at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, said Bangkok could surpass Singapore in tourism and gaming revenue if Thailand develops integrated resorts. Thailand’s Entertainment Complex Bill, which would permit casino resorts, was paused before parliamentary review after protests; a Senate panel is due to report by the end of July.
The bill’s progress could determine whether Thailand permits casino resorts, including the proposed development of a Bangkok gaming market.
