Home Learning Lesson 6

2. The casino being built in Singapore is supposed to be a money-maker and job creator. However, many people have spoken against it. Talk to a parent or adult and get their view on the casino. Listen to the NPR and YouTube offerings and choose one that substantiates your viewpoint and include a quote from it as well. Your blog entry has to be at least 200 words and you must either support the casino or condemn its construction and ultimately the hardships it will cause in Singapore.

I personally support the opeening of the casino. Well firstly, gambling is not a harm to everyone, not everyone will be like the characters in the short stories or poems I have read. It isn't really fair for those people who just treat gambling as a relaxing game or use it to bond with people or guests.

Moreover, an advanced developing country like Singapore, it's alright, if not important to build a fun, mature place like casino. It's important, one big reason is tourist attraction. Singapore had always been one of the favourite choices of tourists, with casino built, it will continue or even improve this situation by a great deal.

View the casino as a good place to strenghen family relationships. View the casinoas a good place for bonding with business partners. If one looks at it in a different angle, things don't turn out to be always bad.
