Online lotto hearing fixed on July 10

 Wanchai Surakul, director-general of the office, said that the results of the public hearing should be finalised within July 15 and submitted to the board of directors and the Finance Minister.

 He insisted that the scheme, which allows buyers to buy 2 and 3-digit lotteries from machines, would help reduce the lottery overpricing problem. To ease the problem, the board of directors, at the meeting on Tuesday, would consider printing 4 million more lotteries in each round.
