President Rodrigo Duterte has lifted the suspension of tasks of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes’ lotto game, Malacañang said on Tuesday.

“Establishment holders and administrators of lotto outlets may now continue with their tasks. The lifting of the suspension of lotto tasks produces results quickly,” presidential representative Salvador Panelo said in a message to journalists.

Other gaming tasks overseen by the PCSO with establishments, licenses or allows, for example, Small-Town Lottery (STL), Keno, and Peryahan ng Bayan (PNB), be that as it may, “will stay suspended pending the examination of illicit exercises and degenerate practices related thereto until the Office of the President assesses the consequences of said test.”

“According to the exhortation of Executive Secretary Salvador C. Medialdea, the suspension of lotto tasks has been requested lifted by the President,” Panelo said.

“Establishment holders and administrators of lotto outlets may now continue with their tasks,” he included.

Duterte had suspended the majority of PCSO’s gaming tasks last Saturday, refering to “monstrous debasement.”

The incorporation of lotto in the request has set off an objection from lotto establishment administrators, saying that lotto was simply hauled somewhere around the unlawful exercises nagging the STL and PNB.
