Think about the casino concept as there are more than 100 ways to skin a cat to ensure that Fiji benefits.

Those are the words of Prime Minister Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama during the Question and Answer session at the 2010 Budget Forum.

Bainimarama said every time the issue of setting up casinos is raised, people start criticizing it without thinking that this can result in benefits.

He said there can be controls put in place and the casinos can be restricted to only tourists with locals not allowed to take part in it.

The Prime Minister said the money earned from the casinos can be diverted to poverty alleviation.
