Gambling to be permitted only at special places in Kazakhstan
Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev signed the law on gambling business.
The law lays down "the legal foundations for organizing the gambling
business in Kazakhstan," the presidential press service said. As of April 1,
2007, the gambling will be permitted in Kazakhstan only at two special
places: the Shchuchinsko-Borovskaya resort area (Akmolinsk region) and on
the right bank of the Kapshagai water reservoir (Almaty region). Meanwhile,
all gambling houses should be equipped with video surveillance systems, and
the whole recorded information should be kept for seven days. A gambling
house will get a license only, if the owner has its own building, gambling
equipment and the service, which can guarantee the personal security of
clients and workers of the gambling establishment. At least 20 green cloths
and 50 slot machines should be installed in each casino.
