"Pae Thong Than" indicates that only a few casinos constitute the complete entertainment venues. It emphasizes that this is not about freely opening casinos, and states that the government must help explain this to the people thereafter.
Prime Minister Pae Thongtan Shinawatra was interviewed at Suvarnabhumi Airport, discussing the content involving people holding banners against the entertainment centers.
Former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra stated at Sisaket Palace that we do not open free casinos. However, it is artificially creating a new tourist attraction, of which casinos are only a small part.
This entertainment center will attract tourists, generating additional new revenue for Thailand, as the old revenue is not sufficient. It is important for our GDP growth to include creating jobs, generating income, and creating new professions.
The government says it does not accept this or that, and has the responsibility to explain to the public. When asked if a referendum could be held, we must help each other explain.
Since many political parties agree that a referendum must be held to listen to the people's opinions, the Prime Minister stated that it is important to listen to opinions. It is not surprising that opinions must be heard.
