WHAT’S IN E-SABONG? restrictions it did not stop cockfighting aficionados to continue betting. As part of the resolution to keep this gambling operation amidst COVID-19, E-Sabong has been introduced to cater the demand of the cockfighting enthusiasts while reducing the risk of spreading the virus. To put into details, it is the online counterpart of the traditional cockfighting wherein the operation is live streamed from cockpit arena duly licensed and authorized by the LGU having the authority and jurisdiction. This gambling activity is being regulated by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) thru E-Sabong Licensing Department (ESLD). However, E-Sabong in the country has been recently controversial following the reported disappearance incidents of at least 34 individuals who were seemingly reported to be involved in game fixing. An in-depth investigation through Senate Committee hearing has already been facilitated to look over and scrutinize the disappearances which already gone viral in the country.

ockfighting locally termed as “sabong” is one of the favourite pastimes of the Filipinos and long been part of the Philippine tradition. It is a betting game placing two cocks to fight in an arena or designated area and whoever intends to join must gamble in a form of bet money for his gamecock. Apparently, some of the Filipinos have been hooked that despite of the implemented COVID-19 pandemic
Relative to the trending E-Sabong issue, this PRO had already penalized one (1) PNP personnel with a 60-day suspension who was allegedly engaging and operating said illicit activity in the town of Kananga, Leyte. A case in relation to PD 1602 known as Prescribing Stiffer Penalties on Illegal Gambling and an administrative case of Grave Misconduct had already been filed against the personnel thus, he is administratively penalized while facing criminal charges. This is a clear confirmation that PRO 8 will not support in any way police personnel being linked on illegal gambling and other unlawful activities as this is a conduct of unbecoming a police personnel. Hence, appropriate sanctions must be charged against uniformed men and women in the entire police force who will be caught engaging such illicit acts.
