BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand's new government will move ahead with plans for a mega entertainment complex that would house casinos, a deputy finance minister said on Thursday.
A public hearing has concluded and 80% of those who attended agreed with the plan, Julapun Amornvivat said.
Most forms of gambling are currently illegal in Thailand, though underground betting is rampant.
