Wombat : an Australian marsupial that eats,roots and leaves
To my knowledge casinos around Asia are built in classy areas - look at Macau and Malaysia.
I can't see the wealthy Chinese gamblers wandering through the sleazy backstreets of Pattaya to get there.
If one were to be established in Pattaya, surely it would be inside an upmarket hotel.
If they can convert a billiard hall into a casino it isn't going to be a casino in the usual sense of the word - more like a gambling den.
I was recently in pattaya. The gossip around yensabai condo is the (alleged) casino is illegal. The story is the police are the owners. It may or may not be true. The story does make for mildly interesting conversation.. for about 2 minutes.
Not so. As a part time resident of Yensabai, a casino operating quietly behind closed doors, for that is what it would be, is not a problem.
What would be a major problem is if it became a Mosque with all the wailing and noise at 5 or 6 a.m. That combined with the Arabs on motor bikes until 5 a.m. would make this resident move out.
Anyway I think its going to be another row of shops similar to those opened last year in Soi Yensabai (one street away).
Move along folks...nothing to see here. I hope!
While I too think we should move on: one thing, Gerefan2 - a casino behind closed doors would be no problem -- withouit it being part of a major hotel complex your streets would be chocked with tourist buses.
Actually, not so paborn.
The streets in that area are too narrow for tour buses. They are only just wide enough for a car!
Lonley this is all a crock of shite move on to something you know about like "Yuppins".
Perhaps your best tale was when you posted that you had been contacted by a group of investors to find a suitable place for a gay venue in the Day Night area, Monty was alot of things but not a group, Lol.

Well the buses and the hoards of Chinese would be somewhere. They would have to be. Still, it won't happen.
I would have thought a boat moored in the bay a far more likely location for a casino.

A casino moored in a bay sounds like a terrible idea. Higher operating costs, logistics issues of getting people on and off the casino.
Care to shed some light on that random thought of a casino upon the bay?
This supposed casino is presumed to be illegal. An illegal casino moored in pattaya bay is absurd.
