While other countries are trying to ban gambling in their countries, there are countries like Sri Lanka who is trying to use gambling as a way to revive their economy. They are aiming to attract gamblers from India and China to contribute to their tourism. Do you think this will be effective?

Isn't this accompanied by tourism?  With their target clients from foreign countries, I think Sri Lanka planned to make the gambling industry and tourism industry to synergize resulting to a much better result.  I think this will be effective even in the long run, we can see how gambling cities thrive even though there are challenges.

Do you think it is possible to revive a failing economy just from gambling revenue?

The gambling industry can greatly help but still this depends on the honesty of people with authority.

Would you be willing to travel to Sri Lanka to gamble?

No, I am too lazy to travel, I'd rather play online than experience the troubles of traveling abroad.
