Mexico moves to legalize casinos for tourism boost
Mexican lawmakers push to end the 70 year ban on gambling in tourist zones with a bill to legalize casinos. President Fox backs the plan, arguing regulated casinos could attract investment, create jobs, and generate up to 1.3 billion dollars in revenue plus 1 billion in taxes. The plan envisions a licensing commission and 11 casinos with hotels, needing over 2 billion in investment but faces concerns over money laundering and credible regulation.
