Malaysia Strictly Against Online Casinos

There are some markets where you really should just give up on attempts to offer online casino gambling and betting to citizens – Asia is a fast changing culture that is sticking hard and fast to legislation that bans any form of internet gambling in the country. Some land and online casino gambling enthusiasts just don’t know how to control themselves apparently because another gambling raid by Malaysian police saw the arrest of 31 individuals as well as the seizure of 417 computers. All of those involved in this latest internet gambling ring are fairly young, just 25-35 and are now being held until further investigation into the gambling ring is conducted.

This is the year of cracking down on illegal online casino gambling for Malaysia; although the police have always conducted these types of raids and seizures, there seems to be a particular focus on eliminating illegal internet gambling this year. The police statistics are alarming really for any fraudsters currently operating illegal online casinos and betting venues within Malaysia. According to the Malaysian police data, raids conducted throughout the first five months of this year have yielded the seizure of nearly 2,000 computers and the arrest of 140 individuals implicated in the running of the gambling ring.

As an additional warning to the online casino gamblers themselves – the police arrests include not only those running the illegal operation but customers are also facing possible criminal charges for their involvement in the gambling ring. The arrests and seizures are being made as a part of the Common Gaming House Act of 1953 which makes gambling illegal in the country – fraudsters often think that the pervasiveness and anonymity of the internet will keep their sins a secret; the Malaysian police though are very thorough in their efforts to eliminate internet gambling in the country.
