Gambling in China : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gambling in China
Gambling in China is officially illegal under Chinese law. In practice, however, Chinese people can participate in state-run lotteries and engage in legal gambling in the special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macau, whose legal systems resemble those of European countries which formerly administered those regions (the United Kingdom and Portugal, respectively). ==Mainland China== The Chinese government operates two lotteries: the China Sports Lottery and the China Welfare Lottery. The Chinese government does not legally consider the lotteries a form of gambling. Illegal gambling in China remains common, including unofficial lotteries, clandestine casinos, and betting in games such as mahjong and various card games. In 2010, ''The Daily Telegraph'' reported that an estimated one trillion yuan are wagered in illegal gambling every year in China. Problem gambling exists in the country, and may be more prevalent than in countries with legalized gambling.〔 Online gambling is another outlet for illegal gambling in the country.〔 Various attempts have been made to establish legal casinos in mainland China, although these have been unsuccessful. Officials from the province of Hainan have expressed interest in doing so, and in 2010, the national State Council approved, in principle, the idea of Hainan as a "testing ground for China's lottery and gambling industry."
