LOCAL Government Secretary Jonvic Remulla has directed local chief executives to conduct inspections amid reports that illegal Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator s continue to operate in the guise of legitimate businesses such as restaurants and resorts.

“I think the last case in Lapu-Lapu showed very clear that when the PAOCC raided the premises, the restaurant, and the hotel and the bar were just a front and then it was a guerilla operation. I believe it transferred the one in Porac and hid there in Lapu-Lapu. So it is really up to a lot of the mayors that when they issue occupancy permits, they have to inspect the premises and make sure that what it is intended for is what’s happening,” he added.
