Remulla, Timor-Leste president discuss Teves case, POGOS

Remulla, reportedly on a "state visit" to Timor-Leste, conveyed a message from President Marcos to Timorese officials that the Philippines has officially banned POGOS due to crime-related issues, regulatory evasion and potential threats to public safety.

He warned officials about reports indicating that Timor-Leste was one of the possible relocation sites for POGO operations.

image"Given the shared Catholic heritage and values of both the Philippines and Timor-Leste, the Philippine government deemed it essential to inform Timor-Leste of the potential socioeconomic and security challenges posed by allowing POGOs to operate within its borders," Remulla said in a statement.
