Q4 How many countries are gambling legal ?
We have found that
there are as many as 154 countries which allow gambling. We describe counries
by region below.
We were surprised that
Japan was included in this list even if gambling is illegal under the laws of
Japan. (Of course there are some gambling such as pachinko, mahjong,
motorboat racing and horse racing.)
Next time we are going
to research about how these gambling get around the law!

I thought there would be much less amount of countries where they allow gambling.
返信削除I was surprised there are much more countries that allow gambling than I thought.
返信削除I think Japan might be able to legalize gambling.
Like Kenta and Kazunari, I'm surprised that there's such a long list of countries that allow gambling. Do you think the source of your information is reliable, since they clearly have a pro-gambling stance? Also, I'd be interested in knowing what sorts of gambling are "and are NOT" allowed in these countries. You'll probably find that gambling is restricted to certain types and highly regulated (and taxed) by the governments in most areas.
返信削除For the remainder of your research questions, try to find more neutral sources of information, question your sources, and provide multiple sources of information to corroborate your findings.
Also, you should give your analysis and opinion about what you've found.
Cheers,
