Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority records show that POGOs based inside the free port have retrenched 85% of their Chinese workers.

As government officials worry over the influx of Chinese retirees in the country, the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority reported the decline in the number of Chinese workers in this premier free port, particularly those working in the Philippine offshore gaming operation industry.

“In fact one of the 4 POGO operators here, the Great Empire Gaming and Amusement Corporation, has closed shop after losing P106 million, so it sent its workers back home to China,” she said. Gordon noted that the youngest Chinese retiree in the country was just 35 years old. He described the situation as “dangerous” for national security.

The first casualty here was Great Empire Gaming and Amusement, which ceased operations in June and retrenched all its 374 personnel, including 368 Chinese citizens and 6 Filipinos.
