Philippine Senator Risa Hontiveros is pushing for a ban on Philippine Offshore Gaming Operations (POGOs) due to concerns about human trafficking. Recent inspections suggest POGOs may be fronts for illegal activities like love scams and cryptocurrency fraud. Hontiveros filed Senate Resolution No. 1001 to investigate fraudulent documents used by POGO workers to obtain Philippine citizenship. Despite sparking debate in the Senate, gaming authority PAGCOR supports efforts to clean up the industry while benefiting from legal operators' economic contributions.
