China’s embassy in Singapore has issued an advisory against its citizens gambling in the sovereign state’s casinos, warning such activity may violate Chinese law.
In a statement issued Monday, and first reported by Reuters, the embassy said it “solemnly reminds” citizens not to gamble at either of Singapore’s two casino resorts – Marina Bay Sands and Resorts World Sentosa – and stresses that it may not be able to provide consular protections to those seen breaking the law.
“Even if overseas casinos are legally opened, cross-border gambling by Chinese citizens is suspected of violating the laws of our country,” the statement read.
