in the video, it is not explained which region (city) it comes from but it is clear that the parade is from my country, in the parade it is clear what slot players get when they play from the "first" month (still motorbikes are expensive) to month "fourth" (ugly motorcycle).

without direct education by the central and local governments to young people and the general public, I think this kind of parade is not effective enough, it's even obvious, the parade is the initiative of the private community in the area.

do you think, a parade like this will be effective in reducing the level of gambling addiction?

The message I'm seeing in that video is your first month you have an ok bike, the second month (where casinos are trapping you with a few wins perhaps) you have a better bike and then it is all downhill from there. It's a bit of a weird way to advertise it, but maybe that is more a translation issue than anything else. It is definitely true, either through luck or manipulative engineering, casinos will often draw people in and it's the first few weeks that decides whether the player gets hooked or not. I[m not sure this video or activity is going to help many people, it's almost advertising gambling subversively in a way - people will often be pushed towards things that seem prohibited, but if it helps one person that's a bonus.

On the other hand if taken with the logic that indeed gambling traps people who are looking for money in gambling, the parade shows that the first month they get a profit and in the next month they lose slowly until they lose everything due to gambling, this can be wrong because indeed the goal of most lower-level people playing jui is to multiply money in a short way so if it is interpreted correctly the parade is a warning to those who are stupid.
But on the other hand it is also a marketing for the gambling activity itself introducing a little although this is subversive and controversial but if a short-minded person thinks if if I play only one week or one month can get a motorcycle and plan to stop after getting it.

Lol, unfortunately, things usually don't turn out that way in with gambling, in fact, they usually most of the time go or happen the direct opposite way, and let me say that the people who usually end up being lucky to get or achieve such as you said; through gambling usually dont plan for such, that is, they usually don't expect that they would win such amount of money from gambling, money big enough to buy something really useful like a motor bike, a very big TV, a home theater audio system and so on and on.

Id it was possible to plan or target on winning big amount of money, enough to buy something we long to own, then stop gambling right after, and it happens just as we plan or envisioned it, I trust that many of us won't be gambling by now because we would have long achieved some of our life's goals we set to achieve with money made from gambling, most of us will be stinkenly rich because I know that I would have wished for was win at least, half a million dollars and with this, I can start up a really big company of my own, but it's often said that if wishes there horses, even the poorest of the poorest would ride Grin
