Ruperto Cruz, the previous owner of the Thai Royal Court compound where the POGO is situated, also blamed PAGCOR. Cruz, a local businessman, earlier sold part of his property to Whirlwind Corporation, which eventually leased the premises to the POGO. “I actually called because I panicked. Porac is suddenly in the news, we have no idea. We have a lot of confidence in Mayor Jing . He should have informed us. You didn’t say that there was a POGO there, that there was a BPO there. Suddenly we were surprised that there was something illegal there,” Vice Governor Lilia Pineda said during the hearing conducted at the provincial capitol on Friday, June 14.

The provincial council blamed insufficient tax mapping and land misclassification as the reasons for the POGO’s low tax remittance. Pineda said higher taxes should have been imposed on the as the operation expanded. Capil said the LONO was just a “locational requirement,” and further scrutiny was PAGCOR’s responsibility.
