Exactly, it is just like flexing their muscle here, trying to show people that they have do something good. But it's like for short term only as it can be accessed by the public, then gambling will still continue despite what BSP ordered for the e-wallets.

So I'm seeing that the e-wallets are still not being affected by the order. It might be just lessening the players. But once those gamblers knows that it can still be accessed by them then they might do it. And worst as you picture it, they might turn into illegal betting sites and the government can't stop them.

Lessening the number of gamblers is a good start, but there will always be people who can’t really afford it yet still insist on gambling. That’s why I think the next move should be to raise the minimum deposit.

Right now, you can deposit for as low as $2, which is super cheap and honestly even kids could afford that. If they bump it up to at least $10, that alone could already discourage a lot of people who shouldn’t be gambling in the first place.

Agree to that so not everyone can easily access and gamble, if there's a minimum amount that's not affordable then it lessen the gambler that will access the site, everything that may help to cut the numbers of possible users can bring weight in combating this gambling participation, the government should continue to pursue to whatever prohibitation that they can apply to limit that numbers as we know that there are so many gamblers now that can easily access gambling site which is connected to their ewallets, good thing that the government already took action on it.
