Another good point. The government needs to weigh things out as problems will show up if they start the ban for this industry, knowing that there are already people who are involve to this business.
Those owners will push the business to run even in terms of illegal activities, money will flow without any benefits for the government
while they need to spent time and money to arrest those illegal gamblers who will continue to play even restrictions already been rule out.
But if the government implements strict rules regarding it, those who will push its limit into illegal gambling will be punished severely and they won't even think about it as their alternative. But those people who are drawn into addiction will only find their way to play even though it's not in their country. most of them have access to online gambling to suffice their hunger to play which is the case where the government has not yet enough control because of how tricky the internet is.
