Employing gamblers?

Sending maids to queue for HelloKitty toys, for tickets and queue numbers I've heard, but getting workers (article)to gamble on the employer's behalf???? Chinese aren't known as innovative entrepreneur for nothing. When interviewed, one employer says he is too busy to gamble, and 5 gambling is better than one of him. Higher chances. One is barred from gambling so he sents his workers. Have these employers spare a thought for the workers? Yes, they get a cut in the winnings but it's also teaching them a vice. This is so not right.
