PHI believe Speaker Martin Romualdez is truly aware of the overall economic impact of POGOs, which validates the justification of its existence and pursuance by the previous admin.
Of course, we have to distinguish the legit POGOs that were granted the proper licenses and are observing and following government regulations, as against those criminally infested ones that took advantage of the POGO proliferation.
This is also why there is a wave of Anti-POGO sentiment being amplified all over the archipelago, not because POGO itself is bad, but because it is being linked to the Duterte admin as the proponent, and mainly responsible for its prominence.
At the end of the day, the incontrovertible truth will come out - POGO made a huge impact in our economy that it is here to stay.
