"Gambling is banned in Indonesia for a combination of religious, social, and economic reasons. Indonesia is the world's most populous Muslim-majority country, with over 85% of the population adhering to Islam. Islam prohibits gambling, considering it a form of haram (forbidden) activity" -- so how can FFG legally launch Hibur, a "social gaming casino" targeting Indonesians?
IDR = Indonesian Rupiah:
ASX Announcements:
"Gambling in Indonesia has been illegal since 1974, but it was announced in 2012 that plans were in place to make all types of online gambling illegal"
"social casino gaming" also appears to be prohibited for Australians, based in Australia or offshore, Australian or foreign owned:
as for the legality of "social casino gaming" in Malaysia, my interpretation of Google's answer is a resounding "HELL NO!"
"Is online gambling currently illegal in Malaysia?Online gambling is illegal under the current Common Gaming Houses Act 1953 (CGHA), the Betting Act 1953 (although the Act does not explicitly cover it) as well as Syariah Law.The CGHA (with further amendments) is more inclusive than the Betting Act in its coverage of types of gambling. The CGHA defines gaming as "the playing of any game of chance or of mixed chance and skill for money or money's worth".In 2020, the punishment for both illegal gamblers and gambling operators was increased 20-fold, from RM5,000 to RM100,000 and a minimum jail sentence of six months.Syariah law bans all forms of gambling among Muslims in the country."
all 12 initial games appear to be gambling games and/or games of mixed chance & skill involving real money that are even "RNG Certificated by BMM Testlabs"
my research leads me to believe that FFG's Hibur "social gaming platform" targeting Indonesia, Malaysia & Australia is illegal & if not, how?
