Cockfighting is extremely popular in my country, the Philippines. In fact, it's a multi-billion peso industry, and if it were to be shut down, many ordinary citizens would be affected. It's said that cockfighting existed even before the Spanish conquest, which is why I believe it's deeply embedded in our culture and tradition, making it difficult to simply put an end to it.

Although many people say that cockfighting is cruel to animals, setting that issue aside and focusing on the event itself, I find it incredibly thrilling. The matches can be highly addictive—especially if you have a genuine passion for these birds.

Your thoughts?
Cockfighting also exists in my country, but only in certain small areas and is very rare because this gambling has received a lot of negative criticism based on norms regarding violence against living creatures. So, this gambling is actually strictly prohibited, but there are still individuals who do it secretly.
