The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has canceled the licenses of seven businesses in Mandaue City, Cebu, that were linked to Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGOs).
These canceled businesses were involved in electronic gaming and customer service operations and were found to be non-operational during inspections.
Mandaue City's Business Permit and Licensing Office (BPLO) will fully cancel the permits of these establishments, ensuring the city is cleared of such businesses.
The cancellations follow President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s Executive Order No. 74, which imposed an immediate ban on offshore and internet gaming in the country.
The President cited national security, public order, the rule of law, citizen safety, and the integrity of the nation's social fabric as reasons for the ban.
