Key Summary:

  • Indonesia signals potentially legalizing casinos to increase tax revenue
  • Thailand and Singapore show tightly controlled gambling frameworks
  • Legalization alone will not solve the massive illegal gambling market

The Indonesian government signals that it could be open to legalizing casino, as a part of a broader effort to boost its slowing tax and non-tax revenue.


Context: This is a similar policy taken by other countries like United Arab Emirates (UAE) and neighboring peers such as Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand.
