Residents’ group I AM MULTI said it had identified 16 addresses in Multinational Village, Parañaque City, that may be linked to illegal online gaming. The group said it had shared part of its findings with the National Bureau of Investigation and a representative in 2024, and was still awaiting action. Interior and Local Government Secretary Jonvic Remulla set 10 January as the deadline for local governments to certify that no POGO operations remained in their areas.
