Description:
Gambling is not an addiction that is usually associated with young people. But it is a social problem, according to Singapore’s National Council on Problem Gambling, especially if left unchecked. That is why it has produced a short film, “RISK”, hoping to address the issue before it is too late. The film’s executive producer Ian Tan said, “This film is actually a youth-to-youth production where we are trying to convey a message of problem gambling among youths. We hope that this film will actually entertain but yet educate youths on the issues of problem gambling, especially in terms of soccer betting.”
