Each country does have their own culture when it comes to some aspects which it might really be looking bad into most peoples eyes but eventually these things are something turns out to be traditional.
Lets just respect on whats other views and activities in related to gambling.It might not really be that looking good or something in correlates with animal cruelty but since this do involves gamefowl
which are really that easy to breed and easy to be produced or something then it wont really be that much an issue.

I disagree with this point of view strongly. I won't be brushing cruelty against animals under the mat because it's cultural thing. There are many things that you don't have to respect just because they are based on old ways. Many people in these countries don't respect them either. Some of these laws preventing animal cruelty would move forward faster when there would be a public outcry and these governments decide to step in as they care about their optics and tourism. Some injustices need to be talked about or otherwise they won't ever change.
