Duterte’s order on offshore gaming ‘ill-advised’

By: Inquirer.net

 

MANILA, Philippines — Former President Rodrigo Duterte’s executive order allowing online gambling operators to make games available overseas was “ill-advised,” the Marcos administration’s Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Juan Ponce Enrile said on Wednesday.

Enrile attended the House of Representatives’ hearing on Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (Pogos) to accompany his daughter, Cagayan Economic Zone Authority (Ceza) Administrator Katrina Ponce Enrile, who explained that there are no Pogos within their jurisdiction.

In an ambush interview, Enrile was asked if it was wise to allow Pogos to operate when other countries have banned these operations.

“It was ill-advised. They did not study it well. My God, Pogo was banned by Cambodia, banned by many countries in Central Asia, and we adopted it here. And why is that here until now, you have Pogos in Bamban and Porac and without Pagcor (Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation) being able to control them?” the former Senate president said.

“Is that a wise decision, wise activity?” he added.

Enrile did not specify which part of Duterte’s Executive Order No. 13 was ill-advised, but the presidential decree released in February 2017 clarified online gambling.

Under Section 3 of the executive order, a licensed online gambling operator or provider of activities and services is prohibited from allowing “persons who are physically located outside the territorial jurisdiction of the licensing authority to place bets, or in any way participate, in the games conducted […] through an online portal or similar means.”

However, the same section also stated that gambling operators who want to operate outside of the government’s jurisdiction can apply “for a separate license with the appropriate authority.”
