MGM maintains Thailand casino interest as bill faces delay
MGM chief executive Bill Hornbuckle said the passage of Thailand’s Entertainment Complex bill may take longer than he had expected, citing public opposition. He said he hopes legislation and a defined process will be in place by the first or second quarter of 2026. Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra suspended the bill’s review after demonstrations, pending further examination.
A delay to Thailand’s bill leaves the timing and process for potential casino investment uncertain.
