But I did try to say that Asian business people will hold foreigners to different standards (compared with locals)
Its unlikely to be a factor in getting approval for licences - based on track record.
Just been interviewed about the Packer fight. Is it bad for his Asian casino business?

@vbomber the two aren't mutually exclusive either.
As Gary Megson said, it's all about putting round pegs into round holes.
Ironically, resources have been devoted to spot-fixing problems, when these are the least-likely to be valuable (low-liquidity markets)
Also, if your football team is purchased by a 'Singaporean businessman' who may or may not be an illegal immigrant, the fix may well be in.
Went to dinner with expert on match fixing. Aust. very vulnerable due to time-zone, proximity, relatively low-pay for footballers.
Very interesting seminar in Liverpool yesterday.Got trolled by someone calling out my econometrics ('your coefficients are biased')...
I am staying at Trinity College in Cambridge tonight and it's absolutely ridiculous. Sat next to a viscount, port, Stilton, snuff...
At least we know they'll be prepared for the next time...

Doesn't PUP stand for 'Physically Unable to Perform'?
@vbomber Fags were awesome. Did you ever try to light one up?
I guess they think that spa-mingers provide punishment enough?
But very well done to the streaker who dove into the hot tub at the end of the match. Tried to tackle him, missed, left him to bathe.
