【シンガポールのカジノについて】
シンガポールにはカジノがありますが、入場料としてシンガポール人には100シンガポールドル、外国人旅行者は無料にしているそうです。その理由は、シンガポール人がギャンブルで身ぐるみをはがされてしまえば税金が国に入らなくなってしまう可能性があるが、外国の方であればどんどん国にお金を落してもらえるからとのことです。
（カジノは今回訪問していませんので、ガイドの方から聞いただけの情報ですが。）

"About a casino in Singapore"
There is a casino in Singapore, but Singaporeans are required to pay $ 100.00 upon entry and foreign tourists enter for free. The reason for this price setting is because taxes might not be paid by Singaporeans if they become bankrupt due to gambling, but foreign tourists will bring more cash into the country without problems.
(I didn't visit the casino this time, so I just heard this story from my tour guide.)
I have learned a rational policy of Singapore.

(About Casinos on Singapore)
There are casinos in Singapore, but it costs Singapore residents 100 Singapore dollars to enter while foreigners visiting enter for free. The reason is that if the Singapore residents gamble away all their money the government will no longer be able to collect taxes from them, whereas foreigners losing money in the casinos is a positive for the country.
(I have not visited a casino this time, so this is information that I heard from a guide.)
I was able to learn something about the rational way Singapore plans.
