AFTER TELLING China last year not to interfere in the Philippine offshore gaming operations, now President Duterte wants to impose restrictions on the games, citing high cases of corruption, extortion, and kidnappings linked to the Chinese operations of controversial online gaming.
China has previously appealed to Duterte to ban the offshore games, but the President rejected this because of the taxes the government collects from them. The Chinese foreign ministry called on the Philippines to ban all online gaming involving Chinese citizens, saying that “online gambling is a most dangerous tumor in modern society.”
