The best sponsors which I have seen that support and encourage programmes that help spread information and awareness about gambling addiction are usually NGOs; government only make promises, tax the gambling industries and leave most of those citizens they are supposed to protect to suffer the fate of their addiction. Only a few countries show concern over how to tackle addiction and reduce the type of promotion that's been spread out that can possibly aid addiction among young ones.
You're right, those few countries have Very different policies They are countries that are generally at a certain level of Development and evolve more every day , but at least in these countries like the one I live in, it's not like that Here things are handled differently, These things don't matter to the governments, but they say they do care, lol, they're too political.
They are too political, and it's getting to them. In a country where most of the politicians are not in office because they want to serve the people but because of their own interests, it's not just in your country; it's also happening here in my own country. In front of the media, they show interest as if it matters to them and they want to be concerned, but in reality, what they are always after is how to exploit and fill their pockets, etc. As long as they get paid, the people who are feeding their citizens misconceptions, which could lead them to gambling addiction, are paying them either for licensing or taxes; they don't care about going further to regulate.
