President Rodrigo Duterte has made a decision that he won't allow new casinos will be built in the country, saying "I hate gambling" after the controversy of Nayong Pilipino Foundation (NPF) who granted a lease of 75 years of a bidder, Landing Resorts Philippines Development Corp. which earlier he fired all officials.
“I hate gambling. I don’t want it. There will be no casinos outside what is existing. I’m not granting anything. You don’t give gambling licenses or franchises for 75 yearst,” Duterte added. “What I mean to say is, when a child is born today, 75 years later—he is that old —there will still be gambling in the city? I will not allow it,” the President said.
Landing Resorts Philippines Development Corp. won a bid to build Casino in a lease contract of 75 years approved by Nayong Pilipino Foundation (NPF).
