Gambling in the Philippines
Gambling in the Philippines is generally restricted by government laws. Illegal forms of gambling include jueteng, masiao and last two.[1] Street games such as Bingo, Tong-its, and Pusoy Dos are also considered part of gambling.
There are no laws prohibiting online gambling in particular, therefore legal.[2]
The Philippine government owns Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation, a gaming company. Charity sweepstakes and lotteries (including online Keno) are also managed by the government through the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office.[3]
