Update news Ha Ton Vinh
Many investors who gave up casino development projects some years ago are considering returning as the government has turned the green light on allowing Vietnamese to go to casinos.
The government has finally allowed Vietnamese to gamble at casinos. However, because of strict requirements set by the watchdog agency, it will be not easy for locals to enter casinos.
Vietnamese may be able to visit casinos if they are 21 years old or older and earn at least VND10 million a month, or if they are third-level taxpayers with high personal income, according to a draft decree on casino management.
The Ministry of Finance (MOF), which is drafting a government decree on casino business management, has once again barred Vietnamese from entry. Only foreigners and Viet Kieu (overseas Vietnamese) would be allowed to enter casinos in Vietnam.
