During the discussion about the return of online betting and the debates that have been sparked by the bill that enables them, journalist Ola Xama said that there is a risk of money laundering, so strong monitoring of companies is needed.
"Albania is still on the gray list of money laundering. The government is under pressure to make a law apparently with strong criteria.
The second challenge, we have the risk of money laundering, but also the market that produces dirty money. So the government will either continue to allow informality, the enrichment of crime, or it will formalize it. In the criteria, the company is set to operate in three countries. But Mexico is also an OECD country, for example. This does not expect the source of money laundering.
What percentage should this foreign company have? What happens if this company, which operates in three countries, exits after obtaining a license? As we have seen such practices also in tenders. The gambling part, rather than a strong law, has limped due to lack of monitoring.
We see the casino market, licensed with strong law breaking the law. Most casinos have been granted a national license by a person convicted of fraud. I'm talking about Regency Casino. This is one part. Then there are casinos that do not have the rank of five-star hotels at all and have the license as if they were five-star hotels.
Where is the state and the law here? How is it possible that the police inform the owners of the casinos, that they expect that we are coming for control?
In money laundering, more than a strong law, law enforcement is needed, everyone should be monitored" , Xama declared for "The Unexposed".
