Thailand’s cabinet approves draft casino law with local asset threshold

Thailand’s cabinet approved a draft law for casinos within integrated entertainment complexes, reportedly limiting casinos to 10% of each complex’s space. The proposal would require Thai nationals to pay a 5,000-baht entry fee and show 50 million baht in deposits over six consecutive months.
