00:00Related to Mr. President, would you want to banggit niya ito in the forthcoming Sona?
00:09Sana.
00:10Actually, magsusona tayo this July.
00:13Sana po.
00:15Sana po banggitin po ng ating Pangulo itong issue ng online gaming, online gambling.
00:22Maganda pong sabihin niya na kung hindi po niya munang ilalabas ang outright ban,
00:28katulad na ginawa niya po sa POGO, pwede po niyang banggitin na I would like to instruct the different agencies of government
00:36to make a study on the social ills and the social effects of online gambling.
00:44And at the same time, we will await the report of Congress and the Senate on the investigations in aid of legislation
00:54against online gambling or regulating online gambling.
00:58That would be a start.
00:59Magandang pakinggan natin niya kay Pangulo itong Sona.
01:04Dahil, grabe na, no? Grabe na.
01:07Itong pangyayari nga dito sa binanggit ng mayor namin sa Kibao, Ibukin nun,
01:12isa lamang po ito sa napakarami.
01:14I got L. Jews from Bataan yesterday.
01:16They sent me messages through Facebook.
01:18L. Jews sa Visayas.
01:21Yung na Summer, Easter Summer, they sent me also, may vlogger doon, nagpadala din sa akin ng private message.
01:29Ganon din po ang story nila, ang kwento nila.
01:35Ang dami po nilang kilala, nagbigti, dami namin kilala, nagnakaw, nasa presinto na yun dahil ninakaw yung pera ng kapitbahay
01:46dahil nga para mabayaran niya yung GCash ng kanyang magulang dahil ginamit nga dito sa online gambling na ito.
01:54So it's getting out of hand.
01:56It's getting out of hand.
01:57So I appeal to the President.
01:59Mr. President, let's do something about this.
02:02We can't just take this sitting down.
02:03That income is not enough justification for the social ills that it will cost our country.
02:09And before you leave in 2028, at hindi po natin aksyonan ito,
02:15our country might be in a worse opposition than what you entered it in in 2022.
