Upper house passes contentious casino bill

Upper house passes contentious casino bill

The House of Councillors passes a bill to legalize casino gambling on Dec. 14, 2016, despite opposition parties' attempts to delay the vote. The bill cleared the House of Representatives on Dec. 6 but was subsequently altered, so the new version will now need to be sent back to the lower house. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
