Mongolia is moving forward with plans to establish casino resorts in an attempt to tap into Asia’s lucrative gambling business and boost its tax revenue. The Judicial Standing Committee decided to establish a working group to draft legislation for the development of casino resorts. An earlier casino bill was submitted in 2012 and received much support in the State Great Khural, but it was not passed. The new legislation proposes a model currently used in Vietnam, South Korea and Cambodia, where only foreign nationals are permitted to gamble in specially created resorts, often near the border or international airports. Under the new bill, Mongolia will establish two casino resorts.
