China is not just the world's most populated country, but also the fastest growing economy in the world. Its online casino market is no exception. In the past 12 months, land-based casinos in China (mostly in Macau) raked in revenues in excess of US $2 billion.

China is the fastest growing online market in the world, exceeding $1.2 billion US in 2002'. Companies are all excited at participating at the Gaming and Casinos World Asia Pacific Conference in Singapore on October 1st and 2nd. Hundreds of online casinos who serve English speaking customers are currently exploring the prospects of tapping into the lucrative Chinese online casino market.

With over 68 million Internet users (as of June 2003) China is the world's biggest online nation right behind US. It's all set to take over US by 2006. With the number of Internet users growing at the rate of 15 per cent or 8.9 million people in the first six months of 2003, China will make up 53.1 percent of Asia's Internet's users, 51.2 percent Internet buyers and 48.6 percent of e- commerce.
