Thailand has decided to withdraw its proposed casino bill as political tensions rise and public opposition mounts. The decision follows a major shake-up in government, including the suspension of Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra and internal party disputes. The controversial bill, aimed at establishing integrated resorts, faced resistance from civic groups and citizens, with over half reportedly against legalizing casino gambling. Lawmakers have now sidelined the bill in Parliament, citing the need to focus on stability and economic concerns. While the proposal has been shelved for now, it may return once the political landscape settles.
