Bangladesh to Set Up Casino Zones for Foreign Tourists
Reading Time: 1 minute
Mohibul Haque, the Secretary of Civil Aviation and Tourism Ministry in Bangladesh, has announced the plans to create “exclusive tourist zones” in which casino operations will be accessible by “foreign tourists” with an international passport.
Haque said his ministry was fully supportive of the government’s crackdown on illegal gaming but suggested: “there should be no problem in providing such facilities for our foreign tourists in the exclusive tourist zone.”
Around 90% of the Bangladesh population is Muslim, a religion that takes a particularly dim view of gambling. But Haque noted that Malaysia is also a Muslim country that offers foreign tourists the opportunity to access casino gambling at the Genting Highlands resort.
