05:28With 172 members voting in the affirmative, 1 in the negative, and 0 abstentions, House Bill No. 10987 is hereby approved on third and final read. The Honorable Manuel is recognized to explain his vote.

05:47Salamat, Mr. Speaker. It's about time. Ito ang dahilan ng representasyon bilang principal author sa pagboto ng yes sa House Bill No. 10987.

05:58House Bill No. 10987 na magbabawal sa Philippine Offshore Gaming Operations o mas kilala sa katawagang POGO.

06:08Noon pang nakaraang kongreso, nirehistro na ng kabataan ang ating mahigpit na pagtutol sa pagkakaroon ng POGO sa ating bansa.

06:16Buhat ito ng mga kaugnay na pang-aabuso tulad ng human trafficking at sexual abuse at iba pang krimen tulad ng pag-iwas sa pagbayad ng buwis

06:26para magkamal ng limpak-limpak na kita.

06:30Ngayong ipagbabawal lang ang mga POGO, marapat lamang nakasama at hindi makalusot ang lahat ng POGO na nagbalat kayo.

06:39Ang mga POGO na nag-convert sa kung ano-anong business venture na hindi POGO sa papel,

06:45pero nasa larangan pa rin ng kaparehong pagsasugal at pananamantala sa mga kababayan nating umaasa sa kaginhawaang pinapangako ng pagsasugal.

06:56Once again, I vote yes as principal author to House Bill No. 10987.

07:02Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
