00:00 The Philippine Charity Service Tax Office, PCSO, issued a test run for online lottery or e-lotto.
00:08 San Camiton Games and Amusement Vice Chairman Sen. Rafi Tulpo asked how the physical lottery outlets are doing.
00:15 The PCSO replied that the plan to lottery is just a test run and they are planning to phase out or replace the lottery outlets.
00:23 But the group of lottery outlet owners is in doubt.
00:27 To date, more than 300 lottery outlets have been shut down.
00:31 We also asked why the e-lotto will only be run by one company and will be built by an agent and electronic service provider.
00:38 In a letter from PCSO General Manager Mel Robles to the Senate, he said that e-lotto is part of the digitalization program of the administration.
00:51 Your Honor, to our knowledge, there is no intention or plan to phase out or fix the lottery agent, sir.
01:04 It's just an e-1+1, sir. It's very elementary.
01:07 Why would people line up at lottery outlets?
01:12 They can just go to the cellphone.
01:15 They're saying that the PCSO has to terminate their outlets because of low sales.
01:20 We will be phased out by the year 2026.
01:24 They will no longer renew our machines.
