Mga higala! President Duterte has lifted the suspension of the LOTTO operations managed by the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO)! Maka-taya na ta balik!
In a statement yesterday, July 30, Presidential Spokesman Salvador Panelo said that “As per the advice of Executive Secretary Salvador C. Medialdea, the suspension of lotto operations has been ordered lifted by the President. Franchise holders and operators of lotto outlets may now resume with their operations. The lifting of the suspension of lotto operations takes effect immediately.”
According to reports, the President may have changed his mind and lifted the suspension because “we all know lotto is machine operated, so corruption might be much lesser in that area.”
However, other PCSO games like small town lottery (STL), Peryahan ng Bayan, and Keno, will remain suspended pending an investigation into the alleged illegal activities and corruption in the agency.
