Myanmar's State Administrative Council Seeks Revenue through Digital Lottery

Before the end of April 2022, the military regime plans to initiate an online lottery system in partnership with private companies, with several local and foreign firms. The firms are still in talks on whether to allow the participants to use bank accounts and other authorised payment channels. This initiative aims to mitigate the slump in tax collections from the traditional (i.e. physical) lottery system.
