Major sporting events such as Euro 2024 often raise concerns about an increase in problem gambling. Thailand is launching a campaign to raise awareness of the dangers of betting on the popular tournament.

Football Fever Concerns

Research shows that football is the fourth most popular form of gambling in Thailand. Ahead of Euro 2024, concerns about the growth of player numbers, especially among young people, are growing steadily.

The Thai Health Promotion Foundation is launching an awareness campaign in various cities across the country to raise awareness of the risks of gambling and prevent possible consequences.

Expected Losses and Increases in Dependency

The dangers for players are extremely high. According to data, Thailand has lost huge amounts of money due to football betting and the risk of gambling addiction continues to rise, especially during popular events such as Euro 2024.

Fighting the Problem

The Foundation is actively working with various agencies to encourage fans to enjoy the tournament without falling into the trap of gambling. This is only part of the efforts to combat gambling addiction, which requires attention from not only the authorities, but also gambling operators.
