Hana kēia kūkā i nā manawa o ka pilikia, o ka makeʻe a i ʻole ke ʻimi nei i kahi ala. Ma Hawaii ua pāpā ʻia ka pāʻani kālā a no nā dcades ʻaʻole makemake nā poʻe politika a me nā kamaʻāina i ka pili kālā i loko o ka Aloha State, a hoʻolilo ʻo Las Vegas i wahi huakaʻi punahele no nā poʻe Hawaiʻi.
Hiki ke maikaʻi ke pāʻani kālā, a he mea hoʻololi pāʻani hoʻi no kēlā me kēia wahi e ʻae ana iā ia. ʻO Seychelles ma ke ʻano he ʻāina kūʻokoʻa, ʻoiaʻiʻo, he maikaʻi kona i ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i ia ʻoihana a ʻike i kahi ʻāpana maikaʻi o ka loaʻa kālā i noho i ka ʻāina. No ka makemake o ka lobbyist mai ka piliwaiwai nui e ʻike i ka piliwaiwai e hāʻawi ʻia ma kahi mokupuni kūwaho i ka Moana ʻInikia.
ʻO ke kuhina hoʻokipa mua o Seychelles ʻo Alain St. ʻAnge, ʻo ia ka mea kūkā huakaʻi i kēia manawa i ʻike i kahi manawa kūpono no kona ʻāina a kākau i kāna hōʻike i kēlā me kēia pule.
"Ke nalo nei ʻo Seychelles i ka loaʻa kālā nui hiki ke loaʻa ʻia e nā casino i hoʻokumu ʻia a puni ka honua. Lawe paha kēia mau casino i kahi o nā mea pāʻani kālā waiwai nui i ko mākou kahakai ma o ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā mokulele, nā halihali, kahi e noho ai i nā hōkele o ka honua, a me nā leʻaleʻa e like me nā huakaʻi moku a me nā huakaʻi mokupuni. Eia kekahi, hoʻolilo kēia mau ʻolokaʻa kiʻekiʻe i kālā he nui i ke kūʻai aku ʻana a me ka ʻai ʻana i ko lākou noho ʻana, me ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka pōmaikaʻi waiwai. Eia nō naʻe, e like me ka ʻōlelo e ʻōlelo nei 'makemake mau ʻia ka pīhoihoi i ka casino'. ʻAʻole e hoʻonāwaliwali i ka piliwaiwai, akā hōʻike nā helu helu aia he ʻoi aku ka nui o ke kālā e noho pū me ka hale, ma mua o ka haʻalele ʻana i ka hale. Me 'ka hale' ʻo Seychelles i kēia hanana, hoʻokumu ʻia kahi pōmaikaʻi waiwai hou aʻe.
"Kaulana nā ʻāina e like me Macau a me Monaco no kā lāua mau casino hanohano, a aneane kū hoʻokahi waiwai ʻia ma o ka pā ʻana o nā mea piliwaiwai kiʻekiʻe, a i ʻike ʻia hoʻi me nā mea pāʻani junket. ʻO nā mea pāʻani Junket i hoʻomaka i ka US he mau makahiki i hala aku nei i kahi hana e kūkulu i ke kūlanakauhale kaulana o Las Vegas. E hoʻolimalima nā mea hana casino ma Las Vegas i nā 'junketeers' e hoʻopiha i kahi mokulele me nā mea piliwaiwai kūpono. E mālama ʻia kēia mau mea pāʻani i nā uku kaʻawale, nā hale hoʻokipa hōkele, nā meaʻai a me nā hōʻike manuahi no ke kūleʻa ʻana e pāʻani i kahi helu kikoʻī o nā hola i kēlā me kēia lā ma ka awelika o ka nui o ka bet. Ua manaʻo ka poʻe casino e eo ana nā mea pāʻani ma mua o ka mea i hoʻopukapuka ʻia e lawe iā lākou i nā papa, a ʻo ka hapa nui o ka manawa ua pololei lākou. Ma hope iki a ma hope paha, ua lilo ka manaʻo o ka mea pāʻani junket i ʻoihana honua.
"Ua hōʻike kēia mau mea pāʻani e makemake lākou e lawe ʻia i Seychelles e pāʻani kālā a i ka manawa like e hauʻoli ai i nā leʻaleʻa kūwaho o ko mākou ʻāina, kahi hui hiki ʻole ke loaʻa iā lākou ma kahi ʻē aʻe. Eia naʻe, pāpā ʻia nā kānāwai o kēia manawa e kāhea i nā casino kūloko. ”
Aia kahi maopopo e pili ana i ka hopohopo e pili ana i ka hiki ke kala kālā me nā mea pāʻani ʻōpala a me ka ʻole o ka kaohi inā kū ka hana kālā ma waho o Seychelles. I kēia pōʻaiapili, he mea nui ia e hoʻomaopopo inā lawe ʻia kēia mau mea pāʻani i Seychelles e pono i nā luna e hoʻoponopono i nā kālepa kālā a nā mea pāʻani a pau no kahi junket, a aia wale nō kēia mau hana i ka casino i hoʻokumu ʻia ma Seychelles. Pono e kau ʻia nā kānāwai e pili ana i nā ʻōpala a me kā lākou kāohi.
Ke nalowale nei ka ʻoihana hoʻokipa ʻo Seychelles i kahi manawa kūpono i ka lawe ʻana mai i kēia mau mea haʻuki kiʻekiʻe i ko mākou ʻāina. Ua hoʻonohonoho mākou i nā ʻoihana maikaʻi me nā hōkele a me nā hōkele kahi e manaʻo ai kekahi o kēia mau mea pāʻani i ka home.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- In this context, it is very important to note that if these players are brought to Seychelles that authorities will need to regulate all the player cash transactions for a junket, and that these transactions only take place in the casino based in Seychelles.
- “These players have expressed that they would love to be brought to the Seychelles to gamble and at the same time to enjoy the exotic tropical delights of our country, a combination they can rarely find elsewhere.
- Seychelles as an independent country, of course, has advantages in regulating such an industry and make sure a good portion of the profits stay in the country.
