Seeing this street gambling advertisement will attract more gamblers and many students will come along, so I think it is at least tragic because this advertisement is enough to destroy not only families but the entire nation. How terrible do you think this advertisement and gambling are, how reasonable do you think it is if such a gambling advertisement is in front of your house/under the open roof
From a personal perspective, gambling and gambling advertisements aren't always bad. All gambling activities are our own responsibility, whether we choose to gamble or not. In countries where gambling is legal, taxes are used to generate state revenue. I believe that establishing a gambling business in that country also has a positive side, creating jobs for the local community. So, none of this is wrong, and it's up to the public to decide whether they will gamble or not. If they gamble and end up losing all their money and valuables, it's not the fault of the advertising or gambling, but rather the individual's inability to control themselves.

This is just a positive perspective, in my opinion.
