Re: One click away: Philippines grapples with online gambling boom – and doom
Filipino families are increasingly affected by online gambling, with easy access leading to addiction and financial problems.
And I thought the reasons were in the weak economy, not in gambling. It turns out that this is how it really is. 
Government revenue from e-games is significant but lawmakers are divided on banning versus regulating due to addiction concerns.

The country is mired in gambling and gambling addiction, and the government only thinks about regulating and taxing gambling. How well they take care of their people.

You will fully understand how addictive gambling is after reading this post, just look at how much the horror of gambling can ruin lives. A woman bet 3000 pesos and immediately she won 30000 pesos. This was a quick win and a trick to trap the gambler but the gambler did not understand and immediately later she won again and she lost all her money even worse. At the last moment her family became completely destitute and later faced huge debts, I am only presenting it briefly.
Stories like these are becoming commonplace. Unfortunately. Seeing this street gambling advertisement will attract more gamblers and many students will come along, so I think it is at least tragic because this advertisement is enough to destroy not only families but the entire nation. How terrible do you think this advertisement and gambling are, how reasonable do you think it is if such a gambling advertisement is in front of your house/under the open roof
Those who want to lose their last money will find a way to learn about gambling without advertising billboards. So, this problem must be solved in another way.
