SOURCE--
in the video, it is not explained which region (city) it comes from but it is clear that the parade is from my country, in the parade it is clear what slot players get when they play from the "first" month (still motorbikes are expensive) to month "fourth" (ugly motorcycle).
without direct education by the central and local governments to young people and the general public, I think this kind of parade is not effective enough, it's even obvious, the parade is the initiative of the private community in the area.
do you think, a parade like this will be effective in reducing the level of gambling addiction?
I view this kind of advertisement as positive instead of negative since this parade is unique. Many people that will watch this scene find it new and might be interested to search for the games and curious to the game.
Instead of reduction probably there might be a conversion to gambler result with this kind of advertisement since it’s on a public without moderation of viewers.
People curiosity will always kicks in on this kind of scenario that will trigger them to gamble since this is new despite the negative propaganda. An example for this are cigarettes, Government in my country attached grossed picture on cigarette packs that related to diseases that you can get on cigarettes yet people keeps ignoring it because they like the product. This might be the same outcome on this kind of advertisement.
