Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco on Monday, March 18, led the inauguration of two newly completed multi-purpose centers in the towns of San Manuel and Victoria in the province of Tarlac.

Mr. Tengco said the state gaming agency provided a total of Php100 million for both of the two-story projects.

“Naglaan ang PAGCOR ng limampung milyong piso para sa bawat multi-purpose center sa bayan ng San Manuel at Victoria; mayroon itong iba’t ibang pasilidad gaya ng kusina, storage areas para sa relief goods, toilet at shower rooms, lactating rooms at maluwag na activity area para sa iba’t ibang gawain,” he said.

The PAGCOR chief said that because the Philippines is very vulnerable to climate change, “typhoons, floods and earthquakes are common occurrences that we must always be prepared for.”

However, he stressed that while the buildings are primarily designed as temporary shelters during emergencies, the structures can be used for various socio-civic activities, too.

“During the height of the pandemic, when the project was rolled out, there was a high demand for quarantine and evacuation facilities. But now, there is more sense to call these as multi-purpose centers rather than just evacuation facilities,” Chairman Tengco said.

“You may use this facility as your social hall, events area, and livelihood training center. You may also use this building to generate revenues for the local government,” he said.

During the event, Chairman Tengco also introduced PAGCOR’s upcoming flagship programs which include school buildings for public schools, e-learning centers, community wellness centers, and socio civic centers nationwide.

“These upcoming flagship projects are designed to create lasting impact on the lives of ordinary Filipinos,” he said. “These are just some of our nation-building efforts because as you are all aware, PAGCOR is the third largest revenue contributor to the national coffers.”

San Manuel Mayor Doña Cresencia Tesoro thanked the PAGCOR chief for the agency’s support.

“We are grateful that PAGCOR saw our need. This multi-purpose center is so far the biggest project that we have seen in San Manuel, and this is proof of PAGCOR’s commitment to serve the Filipinos,” she said.

“We thank everyone who made this dream come to life. Rest assured that we will use this to enrich the lives of our people and the generations to come,” Tesoro added.

Board Member Harmes Sembrano of the 2nd District of Tarlac also expressed gratitude to PAGCOR for funding the two-story multi-purpose facility in Victoria.

“With our limited resources, we cannot afford to fund all programs that will be beneficial to the people of Tarlac. But because of PAGCOR’s help, we have this new multi-purpose facility which will serve not only the locals of Victoria but also those from neighboring towns,” Sembrano said.

PAGCOR has thus far completed and inaugurated 38 multi-purpose buildings in different parts of the country while 34 others are still under construction.

Dutch Regulator Kansspelautoriteit Hands Out Penalty Payment Order to Luxurybingods

Published

Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

Dutch gambling regulator Kansspelautoriteit (KSA) has imposed a penalty payment order on the owner of social media account Luxurybingods for organising bingos without a permit and advertising those bingos. The KSA wants to prevent the party involved from continuing to organise and advertise bingos without a permit. For organising, the penalty payment order is €19,000 per bingo with a maximum of €190,000. And for advertising, a penalty payment order of €9500 per advertisement with a maximum of €95,000 applies.

Small games of chance such as bingo may only be organised by an association that has existed for at least three years and was not established to organise games of chance. The prizes to be won may not be worth more than €400 each or €1550 in total. Furthermore, there is a ban on advertising these small games of chance.

Extensive advertising

During a visit to the Harbour Club in Eindhoven on 27 March this year, supervisors from the Ksa saw that the Luxurybingods bingo was in full swing. No permit had been requested for this. Furthermore, research shows that this bingo was extensively advertised via TikTok. Tickets cost €65 each and the value of the prizes was far above the maximum permitted by law. The bingo was held for the benefit of the organisation itself.

Repetition

The KSA believes that the chance of recurrence is high. Partly because bingos have also been held at other locations and the owner offered illegal online lotteries in 2022 via the Instagram account Luxurybingods. The organisation has already been reprimanded for this by the KSA. The imposed penalty payment prevents the person concerned from continuing to organise these types of bingos.
