PAGCOR Licensees Give PHP60-M for New VMMC Wing
The Veterans Memorial Medical Center will soon have more patient rooms with the start of construction for the Magiting Veterans Wing on Friday, September 22, through a Php60 million grant from two licensees of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation.
The Magiting Veterans Wing is a project initiated by the Philippine Military Academy Magiting Class of 1970 with funding support from Bloomberry Cultural Foundation Inc. (BCFI) and Newport World Resorts Foundation, Inc. (NWRFI), among others.
The two foundations, representing Solaire Resort and Newport World Resorts, respectively, each released Php30 million with PAGCOR’s approval.
The project will be carried out in two phases. The first will be sponsored by BCFI and covers civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, masonry works and roof deck waterproofing while the second phase will be funded by NWRFI and consists of works, fixtures and devices.
The Magiting Wing will have a total floor area of 1379.84 square meters and will house 12 new private rooms inclusive of four suites, a nurse station, lounge area, hallway, storage, access ramp and connecting bridge to the main hospital building.
PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco said the agency approved the grant from the casino foundations because of the project’s noble objective.
“PAGCOR recognizes the patriotism and sacrifice of Filipino veterans who dedicated their youth, vigor, strength and even lives for our country. By supporting this noble project, we show our gratitude to our modern-day heroes and their families,” he said.
Tengco said all integrated resort casino licensees in the country are required to put up a foundation to fund Corporate Social Responsibility programs on education infrastructure, health facilities, environmental preservation and cultural heritage restoration.
Two percent of the licensees’ gross gaming revenues from non-junket tables automatically go to such foundations.
Defense Secretary Gilberto C. Teodoro, who graced the ceremonial concrete pouring for the project, expressed gratitude to the project supporters.
“As donee, we will provide the necessary maintenance and other operating expenditures to see to it that your donations will not go to waste,” he said.
Teodoro said other plans to improve the welfare of Filipino veterans include decentralising the VMMC’s services and the upskilling of hospital personnel so that doctors and specialists can focus more on caring for patients.
“No soldier ever retires. They are always a part of the system. They provide guidance and support to our active personnel hence their job as a soldier is never done,” he said.
Aside from BCFI and NWRFI, other major sponsors of the Magiting Veterans Wing project are DMCI, San Miguel Corporation and some retired military personnel.
Online casino brand Slot Games has officially launched its latest player engagement feature, the Daily Wheel. The new feature allows registered users to claim one free spin every 24 hours, providing an opportunity to win free spins on a selection of popular slot titles.
The Daily Wheel is designed as a simple, engaging mechanic that adds excitement to the regular Slot Games experience. By giving players one daily free spin at no cost, it introduces a sense of anticipation and routine that rewards players for returning to the brand. Each spin of the wheel may unlock free spins on exciting titles.
Unlike many promotions that require a deposit to participate, the Daily Wheel is completely free to access. Players need only log in, spin the wheel once per day, and see whether they win free spins to use on the specified slot titles. Free spins are credited as bonus funds, with a 65x wagering requirement, and maximum conversion equal to lifetime deposits up to £250. Full terms and conditions apply.
The management team at Slot Games said:
“The launch of the Daily Wheel reflects our commitment to creating fun, rewarding features that enhance the player experience. Offering one free spin each day is a small but meaningful way to reward our community. It keeps players engaged, gives them a reason to return daily, and strengthens our overall retention strategy. We believe this feature will be well-received and will be something our players are fond of.”
Daily rewards have become an increasingly popular feature in the online gaming sector. They not only encourage consistent activity but also create moments of excitement that fit seamlessly into a player’s routine. The Slot Games team has aligned the Daily Wheel with this trend, ensuring that the reward mechanism is straightforward, accessible, and appealing to all players.
In addition to the new feature, Slot Games continues to expand its offering of slot titles and table games. The platform is licensed and regulated in the UK, operating under strict guidelines to ensure fairness, security, and responsible play. The introduction of the Daily Wheel further demonstrates Slot Games’ approach to combining compliance with creativity, giving players engaging promotions that remain within regulatory frameworks.
The Daily Wheel is available to all registered players, and spins reset every 24 hours. Whether a player logs in first thing in the morning or later in the evening, they will always have a chance to use their daily free spin within that period. This accessibility makes the promotion easy to understand and participate in, while maintaining an element of anticipation that encourages daily engagement.
Slot Games encourages both new and existing players to explore the Daily Wheel and take advantage of the free spin opportunity. With no deposit required, it’s a great way to discover some of the site’s most popular slot games while enjoying an extra layer of entertainment.
The Daily Wheel is live now and can be accessed via the promotions section on SlotGames.co.uk. Players are invited to log in today and give it a spin.

“Fruitferno 40” went live, a new 5×4 slot from Hölle Games. It comes just a few weeks after the Dragon’s Diamonds launch, a cluster-style title with an equally hot theme! Following up to that 6×5 scatter-pays smasher, the Hölle team have taken a short detour to drop a 40-payline sequel to Fruitferno 20, for all those slot purists out there.
In addition to the de rigeur Fruits ensemble of Cherries, Oranges, Lemons etc, it also has stacked 7 Wilds on all reels, which if hit will pay out a tasty 3300x stake.
