There is a crackdown on cross-border gambling in China. The Ministry of Public Security collaborates with many government departments. People's Bank of China is also involved in the crackdown efforts. Chinese authorities operate a 24/7 tip line relating to cross border gambling. It received over 60,000 tips last year. There are some destinations that are trying to attract Chinese tourists.
Gambling is massively popular across Asia. Most types of gambling are illegal in mainland China except for state-run lotteries. Macau is where people from mainland can go to gamble legally, but since the pandemic there are travel restrictions.
