If they really want to discourage locals from entering casino, they should impose a refundable deposit of $5k to 10k instead. With a $100 entry fee, hardcore gamblers with only $300 in their pocket will still go, pay $100 still hv $200 to gamble.

I believe the idea is noble to non-gambling addicts.

Noting can win the COE stake!!

Pure profit for the authorities.

And the joke is that everyone is happy to lose this depreciation every year.

 

One observation I noticed about this COE mentality is that almost everyone feels superior when they get their COE.

Somehow the system is fine-tuned until, the feeling of getting a COE is a great achievement, and usually comes with great satisfaction.

Very funny...like yesterday...my colleague got his...and was so proud to tell everyone...And he treated me to a nice dinner....and promised to bring me to MBS for a better meal when his car arrived. He claimed he gotten a great deal and SAVED a lot had he not acted quick in signing the car.

 

AD really know how to stroke car buyers ego!!

The biggest Caslno is the COE gamble!!

maybe implement non-transferable CCOE (casino certificate of entry) for fellow citizens.

I.e. implement quota of say 1000 per week. (bid via ATM machine)

All CCOE revenue goes to those antigambling vwo.

 

MCYS will know who are harden gamblers if they wins CCOE every week
