新加坡已屏蔽近3800个非法赌博网站

2025年1月8日，新加坡内政部长尚穆根在国会书面答复杨厝港单选区议员叶汉荣先生有关屏蔽非法赌博网站的口头询问时透露，截至去年12月31日，内政部已屏蔽逾3800个非法赌博网站，并拦截了超过14万5000次涉及本地公众的非法赌博交易，总额约为3700万元。

以下内容为新加坡眼根据国会英文资料翻译整理：

叶汉荣（杨厝港单选区议员）先生询问内政部长：

(a) 新加坡目前屏蔽的非法赌博网站和应用程序有多少个？‍

(b) 为什么新加坡居民仍然能够访问这些网站和服务？‍

(c) 内政部是否会考虑允许问题赌徒的家人要求封锁这些问题赌徒用于赌博活动的银行账户？

尚穆根（内政部长）先生：截至2024年12月31日，内政部已经屏蔽了超过3 800个非法赌博网站，我们评估这些网站很可能以新加坡公众为目标或新加坡公众很可能经常光顾这些网站，并拦截了超过14万5000笔涉及新加坡公众的非法赌博交易，总金额约为3700万元。

这些封堵措施在一定程度上阻止了非法在线赌博的侵入。然而，这种方法显然不是万无一失的，因为非法经营者很容易创建新的网站，而我们也没有能力知道每一个赌博网站。我们鼓励市民向警方举报非法赌博网站、应用程序和广告，以及非法赌博经营者使用的银行账户。

政府已采取多项措施帮助问题赌徒，例如资助社会服务机构为问题赌徒提供辅导及建立支持小组。问题赌徒的家人应鼓励他们致电全国预防嗜赌理事会求助热线1800-6-668-668 或登录www.ncpg.org.sg 网站寻求帮助。

至于议员的建议，目前还没有计划允许家人要求冻结问题赌徒使用的银行账户。我们认为现在的措施已足够，因为病态及问题赌徒的可能率一直维持在 低水平，稳定在 1%左右。

以下是英文质询内容：

Mr Yip Hon Weng asked the Minister for Home Affairs (a) how many illegal gambling websites and apps are currently blocked and banned in Singapore; (b) why are Singapore residents still able to access such sites and services; and (c) whether the Ministry will consider allowing families of problem gamblers to request the blocking of bank accounts used by these problem gamblers for their gambling activities.

Mr K Shanmugam: As of 31 December 2024, the Ministry of Home Affairs has blocked more than 3,800 illegal gambling websites which we assess to be likely targeted at or likely to be frequented by the Singapore public, and more than 145,000 illegal gambling transactions involving the Singapore public, amounting to approximately $37 million.

These blocking measures have impeded access to illegal online gambling to some extent. However, this approach is clearly not foolproof as illegal operators can easily create new websites and we do not have the ability to know of every gambling website. We encourage members of the public to report illegal gambling websites, apps and advertisements as well as bank accounts used by illegal gambling operators to the Police.

The Government has put in place various measures to help problem gamblers, such as funding Social Service Agencies to provide counselling and run support groups. Families of problem gamblers should encourage them to seek assistance by calling the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1800-6-668-668 or visiting www.ncpg.org.sg.

Regarding the Member's suggestion, there are no plans for now to allow families to request the blocking of bank accounts used by problem gamblers. Our view is that our current measures are adequate as the probable pathological and problem gambling rate has remained low and stable at about 1%.
