MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. is pushing for a separate regulator to oversee the e-sabong industry, saying it would rather distance itself from virtual betting on cockfights to focus on other responsibilities.

 

The e-sabong industry has been under fire following the disappearances of over 30 people linked to the online betting. The Senate held four hearings on the incidents earlier this year. 

 

E-sabong contributes about P650 million a month to the government, based on latest estimates.
