Ray of Hope: King

With the opening of Singapore's first two casinos last year, Singaporeans who used to travel overseas for their gambling fix now have ready access to the betting tables – a catalyst that led to an increase in problem gambling cases.

Gambling is one of the favourite activities for Singaporeans over the Lunar New Year holidays, when many are prone to trying their hand in the name of the festive period. Ray of Hope (of Christian Care Services Singapore) wanted people to know that problem gambling is just like any other psychological disorder and can be treated with proper counselling.
