Cheng Wee- Chinese tourists warned against gambling and porn in Taiwan

Chinese visitors to Taiwan will not be allowed to gamble or engage in ''pornographic activities''. Travel agencies are also not allowed to arrange gambling, pornographic and drug-related activites harming cross-strait relations. Chinese travel agency managers went to Taiwan on a fact-finding mission to inspect tourism infrastructure such as hotels and transportation. They inspects on tourism infrastructure at the weekend example the Taiwanese Premier Liu Chao-shiuan, to check on the progress of refurbishment works. The warning was issued by the cross-strait tourism association which then lead to the sign of break-through agreements on charter flights and tourism promotion between China and Taiwan this month.

Personal comments: I think that for my point of view, it is the right thing that they warned Chinese tourists against gambling and porn in Taiwan. This will results in less people thinking about ''dirty'' stuff and into heavy gambling as they will not have to be in contract with it. All these would only ruin their future and life and they might not have a second chance to draw back into the right path again. This would even further influence their families as they would be in heavy debt and i believed many happy families' bond have been broken because of that. I think that Singapore should also imply the similiar strictness againist gambling and porn . But overall it is up to our own thinking of getting into such stuff as if you really want it, no one can stop you.
