02:28Therefore, he called for the government to make a decision to ban gambling if it does not privately collect the benefits of the gambling companies.
02:34Why is the government today defending gambling?
02:38Do they want the people to be ruined morally?
02:42They have to make this decision now.
02:45As a country, we challenge them to do the same thing in the country ruled by them.
02:52If they do not collect the benefits of the gambling companies.
03:02In response to Pengheng's decision to ban gambling,
03:05Pengheng's Chairman of the Action Party, Li Zhengxian,
03:08criticized the party's actions as a blow to foreign investors' confidence,
03:12affecting China's economy and infringing on the rights of non-Muslims.
03:17He emphasized that Yunding Plateau has always been peaceful since its inception,
03:22and strictly restricts non-Muslims from entering.
03:25In addition, Yunding Plateau is not only a casino,
03:28but also a world-famous tourist destination,
03:31which is the main source of tourism revenue in Pengheng.
03:34Yunding Plateau has tens of thousands of employees,
03:36most of whom are Muslims.
03:38Therefore, Li Zhengxian criticized the party for its own ideology,
03:42saying that closing Yunding Plateau will affect the livelihoods of many people.
