Is this the end or start of woes?

The RWS casino has finally opened.. the long awaited legal place to gamble has finally opened..

Casino is a new term in Singapore.. if Singaporeans want to gamble, they will usually take the cruise, go to Genting or further, Macau or Las Vegas.. Now it's at our door step.. To a gambler, $100 entrance fee is nothing.. haha.. and what is an annual fee of $2000 to them..

Everybody knows what good a Casino can bring to Singapore.. end of tourism woes.. a new attraction on the Singapore island.. and everybody also knows the woes that casino can bring to Singapore.. if not why a National Council of Problem Gambling is set up.. if not why there is ban on gambling for some people.. many things have to be done to prevent and help compulsive gambling.. but are these sufficient? just a few days and I already heard some people discussing about their experience of gambling at RWS.. and news have been reporting of people wanting to return to gambling very soon..

will these people exercise self control? hope so.. if not, the loan shark will be laughing and their family members will be crying..
