"So it’s his (Año) recommendation and I agree with it and it is good. So e-sabong will end by tonight o bukas. Lalabas ito bukas,"Duterte said in his weekly Talk To The People aired over PTV and Radyo Pilipinas on Tuesday.
The President said he gave verbal order to the DILG Secretary to conduct survey on the social impact of the online sabong to every Filipino families.
" So ginawa ni sekretaryo ang trabaho niya and he reported and validated ‘yung naririnig ko. Iyong amin lang man sana buwis lang ang hinahabol namin dito. Sinabi ko na sa inyo P640 million is P640 million," he said.
Duterte said loud enough and very clear to him that e-sabong is working against the values as well as giving huge impact to every family.
" Eh ang labas na hindi na natutulog ‘yung mga sabungero 24 hours. That was the first objection that I’ve heard from somebody. I think it was coming from a congressman na sobra ito," he said.
He said the survey might not be a sophisticated survey but still it is a survey.
"And the recommendation of Secretary Año is to do away with e-sabong and he cited the validation report of – coming from all sources," he said.
