State advised to halt lottery sales
The National Gaming Control Commission(NGCC) has appealed to the Korea Lottery Commission(KLC) to consider halting sales of all tickets out of concern that the government could be seen as instigating gambling.
But the KLC will not place any sales restraints for the time being, as the move could “threaten the industry and bring about massive complaints from customers,” said Na Joo-beom, director at the state-run agency.
The nation is expected to sell 3 trillion won ($2.67 billion) in lottery tickets this year, surpassing the 2.8 trillion won annual sales ceiling imposed by the NGCC. As of the end of November, 2.79 trillion won in sales had been recorded, up almost 22 percent from 2.3 trillion won the same period last year.
The NGCC has recommended the issuing authority cap sales to curb excessive gambling, but the KLC says any sales restraints could cause “social problems.”
“We have been trying to cool the explosive popularity by halting all sorts of promotions to slow the industry’s growth, but stopping lottery sales isn’t one of our options,” Na said.
“Business at more than 18,000 venues across the country will be threatened, and complaints from frequent buyers would be a bigger problem.”
In some ways, Buying lottery is an effective way to live with active and happy life during a week. According to above news, lottery profits will exceed the limitation of this year. It means that more people are faced with a difficult financial situation which makes me so sad. However, the problem is that they could be addicted to gambling more seriously. Those who buy lotteries every week with a great amount of money should be awake and aware by themselves that they become addicted gamblers who are more likely to have serious marital problems. As the director said that there is no realistic alterative plan to stop selling lotteries.
