BEIJING, Jan. 26 (Xinhua) -- China's blacklist system for cross-border gambling tourist destinations will add more overseas destinations to its list, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism (MCT) announced Tuesday.
The ministry in conjunction with relevant departments will make a list of the second batch of overseas destinations that attract Chinese tourists for gambling activities, which will be subsequently added to the system, the ministry noted.
In order to better regulate the tourism market and safeguard the lives and property of Chinese citizens, the blacklist system was established through concerted efforts of multiple departments, including the MCT, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Public Security. It took measures on the first group of targets in August 2020.
Travel restrictions will be imposed on Chinese citizens heading to overseas cities and scenic areas on the list, the MCT added. Enditem
