  I was just wondering what Muslims think....
  
  Casino Issues until Dec 8
  Columns By Andrew PK Yap
  
  Based on criticisms from certain quarters, I would like to clarify that this site is heavily skewed towards Casino issues at the moment because the Sentosa IR is under consideration as we speak. The results should be announced on or around Dec 8th.
  
  If you have any suggestions to make, please write in to your MPs by emails or go down personally to see them on an urgent basis.
  
  Have compassion on the children as very powerful people try to tempt them to visit the Casino IR.
  
  At the very least, let them know that you will object strongly if the Ministry of Education through their schools organise trips to the Casino attractions.
  
  In fact, let them know that you object strongly for them to organise trips to Sentosa Island itself. Threaten them with your vote if need be.
  
  To have a better understanding of the issues please read on this site the following if you had not done so.

  i wonder what religion do leaders of our country adopt.
  i wonder which screwed up religion is that that actually asks its followers to promote gambling by setting up of a "sin house"(casino)

  I guess Muslims will never come round to accepting the casino... that is a relief.

  What about the casino attractions like the theme parks for children? I hope that it is considered a sin as well.

  Gambling is a sin.
  
  But in my POV, it shouldn't be a sin to enter a casino so long as you do not engage in gambling and other sinful activities.
  
  If it were a sin to enter a casino, then it would be a sin to enter a supermarket which has a selection of alcoholic drinks.
  
  Just my thoughts.
