As for Boris, download the Question Time London mayor special to find out why Ken lost.

]]> Comment on Gamblers unite! And book a ticket to Wuhan. by Kevin Cain http://www.beijingnewspeak.com/2008/01/11/gamblers-unite-and-book-a-ticket-to-wuhan/#comment-54773 Kevin Cain Thu, 15 May 2008 08:10:57 +0000 http://www.beijingnewspeak.com/2008/01/11/gamblers-unite-and-book-a-ticket-to-wuhan/#comment-54773 I find this article about gambling on horse racing very interesting as a good freind of mine is the race course manager for Mr Chung in Beijing and i have been waiting for some positive news in this regard.I was the manager for the internet horse raceing gambling website for the listed English company Sportingbet PLC in Australia. And have since moved on to manage the call centres in the Asia Pacific region for one of the bigger Australian Bookmakers and have wide expieriance in Tote and Internet gambling and the racing industry in general. I can only agree with Bernard Angs comments on the need for a stick policy of trancparency and integrity at every level.To appreciate the people of Chinas love for gambling one only has to look at the gambling dollars leaving the mainland at present of (under estermated)US$80 Milloion.There is no doubt that that figure would pale into insignificance when race horse gambling begins in China.That sought of money always attracts corruption of one sought or another from my expieriance and the orthorities must put together very tight regulatory policies and to copy the rules etc directly from the Hong Kong Jockey Club simply wont work just as a government run tote based product for potential punters wouldn,t,as illegal betting in Hong Kong where it is all tote based has been on the increase for years. The Chinese central Government has a huge oppertunity to collect revenew from this venture and it is imperitive that it is done correctly in the first place.Firstly it would be wise to incorporate some rules and regulations from other world racing duristriction into there framework in both the racing and gambling aspects and open it up to competition and tax it accordingly.I wish them the best of luck and am sure that it WILL BE a huge success.
