We’re legal, don’t stifle us – DigiPlus

Leading online gaming operator DigiPlus Interactive Corp. is seeking to find a middle ground with lawmakers where there will be enough regulation but not to the point of stifling the business of licensed operators and even encouraging illegal operations to go legit.

In a media talk after the firm’s annual stockholders’ meeting, DigiPlus Chairman Eusebio Tanco said legitimate operators are open to the government adding “a little bit more regulation, because if you over-regulate the money, it migrates to the illegal.”

“There is a balance where you can regulate so that you can attract the illegal to apply for licenses to be legalized,” he said.
