Good move - here in SA the casino's are all situated close to poor areas - for a reason. The poor are less educated and are more likely to engage in the futile pursuit of getting rich easily.

Singapore went from a backward rubber and fishing backwater to a high tech developed economy in just a few decades because of its leaders. A country with poor leadership goes nowhere.
