This is just weird. Why doesn't Pagcor enter the online market and attract international online players? Pagcor has all that it needs: it has the authorization, it has the monopoly, and it has the earnings to make that possible. Though Pagcor is reporting millions in annual earnings through traditional casinos and slots , that can still be increased if it dealt in online gambling, specifically the sort where foreign players can play.

Admittedly, Pagcor has some online betting ventures that are also giving out profits. You have online sports betting on basketball and cockfighting, and you can also find several e-cafes scattered around the country. But the problem is, these online games are somewhat localized and not really released for the internet public per se, like an actual public site. I can't see what Pagcor's problem about this can be. Is it just marketing the site? It would be a shame if we cannot take advantage of the extra earning that online gambling can give us. Aside from that, the earnings that you get are in dollars. There is much to win in the venture, but what is strange is that Pagcor is not moving quickly towards that direction.
