MANILA, Philippines (Updated 3:50 p.m.) — Moves to restrict Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators continue with the Department of Justice set to meet Chinese embassy officials in the coming days to come up with a resolution on POGOs recently cancelled by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation amid the latest spate of kidnappings linked to the sector. 

 

In a text message to reporters, Justice Assistant Secretary Mico Clavano, department spokesperson, said that Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla will meet with the Chinese Ambassador on Thursday afternoon to discuss the cancelled POGO companies as listed by Pagcor. This marks the first time the Philippine government is meeting Chinese counterparts about the issue. 

 

"There must be a coordinated effort between the two countries to bring them back to China given that they have no more basis to stay here in the Philippines," he said.
