Asian Companies Eager to Enter Gaming Market

There is certainly no doubting the fact that major online casinos that operate in Europe and other countries are looking toward the Asian market for expansion in the coming years. But interestingly enough, Asian companies view the American and European markets with as much expectation. Though Asia has yet to embrace the online casinos gambling industry, the country does offer some uniquely Asian games that are quickly gaining in popularity in other countries and cultures.

Many online casinos companies have looked at the popular and traditional Mahjong game as a great way to enter the Asian market – develop a Mahjong Web site with a few other approved games, and the companies can begin to gain credibility in the Asian markets. But it works the other way too. Asian’s aren’t the only players who like online Mahjong, and an emerging Asian company is looking to bring Mahjong to the global gaming industry.

World Tour Mahjong, Inc. (WTM) is primarily focused on the Asian gaming industry, but has recently announced plans to bring Asian Mahjong to English speaking players as well though a popular and world-wide social networking site, Facebook. Though it isn’t exactly the online casinos gambling industry, Mahjong is gaining popularity in New markets, and the founders of WTM are looking at the benefits to the company by offering services to English speaking players. Pierre Wuu, one of the co-founders of the company remarked, "With this new launch on the Facebook Platform we will be the leader in presenting Asian games to a worldwide global audience. Facebook has a strong presence outside Asia in both North America and Europe. This is a market which very few Asian gaming companies have entered. This market will only grow."
