The measure also tasks the Management Information and Computer Services (MICS) with blocking online gambling sites across all city government internet networks, reinforcing efforts to promote workplace discipline and responsible internet use.

The resolution, authored by Councilor Nyza Archival, expresses support for the proposed Anti-Online Gambling Act of 2025, filed by Senator Juan Miguel “Migz” Zubiri.

The national bill seeks to ban all forms of online gambling across the Philippines, aligning with the city’s push to regulate internet use during work hours.
