The document that outlines these restrictions was produced by the Council of State, which is headed by the prime minister.<\/p>\n<p>According to the draft regulations, licensees may extend the 30-year original duration of their casino licensing by an extra 10 years. These casinos would be a component of bigger \u201centertainment complexes,\u201d which also included lodging facilities, meeting spaces, and tourism destinations.<\/p>\n<p>Srettha Thavisin, the prime minister of Thailand, is in favor of legalizing casinos in order to stimulate the economy and raise tax income. A report by MPs arguing for licensed casinos in large entertainment venues to draw tourists was approved by the House of Representatives in March. A minimum of THB 100 (US$2.83 billion) would need to be invested in each casino resort.<\/p>\n<h2>Interest from Global Casino Brands<\/h2>\n<p>Four out of the six casino brands currently operating in Macau have expressed interest in investing in Thailand, pending more details on the regulations. Bill Hornbuckle, CEO and President of MGM Resorts International, indicated that any venture into Thailand would be managed through their Macau unit. MGM Resorts is already heavily invested in Asia, with the <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/casino-news\/mgm-resorts-sets-sights-on-osaka-integrated-resort-and-expanding-global-presence\/\">MGM Osaka project in Japan<\/a>, valued at JPY1.27 trillion (US$8.76 billion), set to open in 2030.<\/p>\n<p>Industry observers have identified five potential locations for casino resorts in Thailand: two in Bangkok, one in the Eastern Economic Corridor, one in Chiang Mai, and one in Phuket. These locations align with the government\u2019s goal to enhance tourism, a key industry that accounts for about 20% of total jobs in Thailand.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/7-bit-casino\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"7Bit Casino\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/7BitCasino.png.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/7-bit-casino\/\" title=\"7Bit Casino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">7Bit Casino<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong>\u00a0Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.
