Governor Arnold I. Palacios on Wednesday raised concerns about online gambling and the creation of a Tinian stable coin.

州长阿诺德·帕拉西奥斯（Arnold I.

"Isn't it the same thing...that the Philippines has, and even Palau? We need to be very careful how this thing is done," Palacios said at the Commonwealth Development Bank press conference.

帕拉西奥斯（Palacios）在英联邦开发银行新闻发布会上说：“这不是同一件事吗？菲律宾拥有的，甚至是帕劳？我们需要非常小心这件事是如何完成的。”

It's a new type of gaming, the governor said, "but it's still gambling and [has the] potential of something occurring that we have to be very concerned about."

州长说，这是一种新型的游戏，“但这仍然是赌博，并且具有我们必须非常关心的事情的潜力。”

The Philippines has its ongoing problem with online gambling, Palacios said. "We see it, we read about it, we hear it. And what are we doing? We need to be very careful," he added.

帕拉西奥斯说，菲律宾在线赌博存在持续的问题。他补充说：“我们看到了，我们读了它，听到了。我们在做什么？我们需要非常小心。”

Palacios said it's "unfortunate" that the Legislature overrode his veto of Senate Local Bill 24-1.

帕拉西奥斯（Palacios）说，立法机关将他的否决权否决了参议院地方法案24-1的否决权是“不幸的”。

He said the lawmakers should have looked at what the Office of the Attorney General pointed out regarding the constitutionality of the measure, and the way it was drafted.

他说，议员们应该研究总检察长办公室指出的有关措施的合宪性以及起草方式的内容。

Palacios doesn't believe that the Tinian Casino Gaming Control Commission can regulate a crypto-related business.

Palacios不认为Tinian赌场游戏控制委员会可以规范与加密相关的业务。

The override, despite the clarification from the AG, "was unfortunate," Palacios said.

帕拉西奥斯说，尽管AG的澄清是不幸的，”帕拉西奥斯说。

Asked whether the Legislature got it wrong, Palacios said, "I think so. I really do think so. Maybe they got it right, but I think they should have taken the time to call the AG [so he could] explain what it is that he was saying. But we'll see what happens."

当被立法机关弄错时，帕拉西奥斯（Palacios）说：“我认为是这样。我确实是这样认为的。也许他们做对了，但是我认为他们应该花时间打电话给AG [以便他可以]解释他在说什么。但是我们会看到会发生什么。”

Palacios said CNMI leaders "did the same thing" with the Saipan casino legislation "and the casino came, and then what?"

帕拉西奥斯（Palacios）说，CNMI领导人“对塞班岛赌场立法做了同样的事情”，赌场来了，那是什么？”

"Did they even think about all these [things] that [have] happened?" referring to Imperial Pacific International.

“他们甚至想到了所有[已经发生的事情]吗？”指的是帝国太平洋国际。

IPI operated a casino on Saipan for four years until the Covid-19 pandemic forced its closure in March 2020.

IPI在塞班岛经营了一家赌场四年，直到1920年3月的Covid-19-19迫使其关闭。

On April 19, 2024, IPI filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, citing over $165.8 million in debt. Chapter 11 allows corporations to restructure while continuing operations.

2024年4月19日，IPI申请了第11章破产，并以超过1.658亿美元的债务。第11章允许公司在继续运营的同时进行重组。

"I don't even know if the principals of these companies were vetted to begin with. Who are they?" the governor asked, referring to the CNMI-based Marianas Rai Corp., which Tinian chose as an exclusive provider of software and services for the issuance and redemption of the Tinian token called the Marianas U.S. Dollar or MUSD.

“我什至不知道这些公司的校长是否被审查了。他们是谁？”州长问，指的是总部位于CNMI的Marianas Rai Corp.，Tinian选择作为发行和赎回Tinian Token的软件和服务的独家服务提供商，称为Marianas美元或Musd。

The Trade Council of the Marianas president, Vin Armani, earlier said that S.L.B. 24-1 "represented the efforts of dozens of experts and professionals, over many months, to provide a means for bringing significant tax revenue, in the hundreds of millions of dollars per year, to the municipal and central government, while having no casinos or gaming within the Commonwealth."

玛丽安娜（Marianas）主席文·阿玛尼（Vin Armani）的贸易委员会早些时候表示，SLB 24-1“代表了数十名专家和专业人士的努力，几个月来，每年为市政府和中央政府提供了数亿美元的税收，同时在联邦政府中没有赌场或无赌场。”

Armani, who is also Marianas Rai Corp. co-founder and technology chief, added that "the internet gaming regime developed by Tinian would have blocked players in the CNMI or any U.S. state or territory from participating in the gaming, while verifying and tracking all players and funds in the gaming ecosystem using the latest technology."

Armani也是Marianas Rai Corp.联合创始人兼技术负责人，他补充说：“ Tinian开发的互联网游戏制度将阻止CNMI或任何美国州或地区的任何州或任何美国州或地区的玩家参与游戏，同时使用最新技术验证和跟踪游戏生态系统中的所有玩家和资金。”
