The state-run Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office dips into its own coffers to fund its illegal gambling operations.
Santiago made the disclosure when asked by Surigao del Norte Representative Ace Barbers on the PCSO’s policy against illegal gambling. “There is no particular policy for that. We do coordination… the information we receive, we coordinate them to the law enforcement agencies because PCSO does not have law enforcement power,” Santiago said.
“This is being processed by the management and they coordinate it with law enforcement agencies. This move will help eradicate illegal gambling activities,” Santiago said.
