It needs more approaching between the government, the betting firms, and the people because it is related to all teens today that everything online can be easy to access. He intends to stop or reject online cockfight betting but hopefully, that is not because of his political agenda.

Cockfighting became an alternative for some people to playing gambling and when that is online, those betting firms reach more players who can not go out by using their device to place their bet. The government needs to think about how their teens do not do something because that is related to their future.

I think there is a bigger personality behind Atong Ang. I see him as just a pawn in this gambling network in the Philippines. Remember that his name has been crapping up even during the Estrada administration and up to know he is still on the (illegal) gambling business. So for me, there is a someone that is strong backing up Atong Ang so it is hard to stop this new pandemic in the pandemic in the Philippines even though Cayetano is trying to fight it out.

I've watched cock fighting directly in my country. Here it is organised and events were conducted without any intervention of government. Here also betting will be done, most of the time this will be conducted as competition.

I've seen cock fights of philipines through different documentary. Recently saw a documentary in which a common man easily spends $150 into cock fighting. This is big amount and I found this to be part of their culture. Almost everyone used to grow a cock and keep it trained.

philipines isn't a rich country it's amazing that to see that a normal person can spend 150$ on a cockfight.
what you say is that it is conducted as competition but that perception has to be shown, marijuana is illegal but many buy and sell it and cops take bribes in many countries from the person they caught.

Lol, everyone here in my neighbourhood plays online sabong.

I will admit that I try to play it once, around $20 as capital but I lost everything. Been playing cockfighting for years, but I don't know, I don't feel the atmosphere of an online betting.

So I didn't get addicted by I hear a lot of horrendous stories around. Ordinary people losing big money and become addicted to online sabong.

Wait... do you mean hen fighting each other online?
Not hen but it's rooster versus rooster.

I've seen those fights in movies and most likely heard that betting on these fights in local of some countries like UAE, India, Pakistan is normal.
I've never heard that it's happening in middle east countries like UAE. But they're not that strict as their other nearby countries so it's probably really happening there.

I don't think the government cares about people there care about their own feelings and want to see the world destroy itself no matter what they say on your face that's the reality.
They do care for their people but it's just there are those politicians that are always politicking of any issue just as this.

I think it was allowed by the Philippine government to raise money during the pandemic.

However, it turns out to be very lucrative for the people behind as there are many Filipinos who are hooked into it and become addicted. So still just like any gambling platform, it has good and bad effects.

I'm not sure though if the bill will passed in the legislative Congress of the Philippines. There are two many powerful personalities in any gambling because of the huge money involved, just saying.

Its not legal yet but they are still operate care to check this article to see some good information about it https://www.legalsportsbetting.ph/esabong/ and also I think its not good to legalize it knowing how huge the risk what it can bring to the people plus the only one who get rich from this is the owner only so its good that there is a law maker cutting its legalization since this could save people from a risky lifestyle.

They will allot money just to participate in their gambling habit even if the money is for their family's necessary needs. I believe it is normal for a lot of these cockfighting gamblers. We know that it is hard to earn that amount of money in their country, which is actually the monthly wage of most people. So for me, it is right that the lawmaker will reject this bill. At least save some people's lives that may further be addicted into this gambling hobby.

Governments need to have control at the right moment, only then these people can get rid of hard situations of losing.

It has become a new pandemic, a pandemic that came out out of the pandemic, and celebrities is just one of the thousands of stories of people getting their life's miserable because of online cock betting, it's heavily promoted in social media and you can easily get in for as low as 1 pesos, the game is not complicated because you're only choosing between the two cocks.
The government should do something about this even if it's getting millions of tax revenues, but gambling is legal here in this region as long as the operators abide by the government rules and are compliant, all the government can do is to remind people to be a responsible gambler it's really up to the players to control their greed.

a law maker Cayetano in our country Philippines calls for the rejection of legeslative bills for the successive passing of franchise bills for online cockfight betting firms. reason is, many lives had already been ruined because of the online "sabong" in the country. there was a news about a local celebrity who loses his fortune because of online betting. the article mentions the lad who was arrested for failing to pay debt of more than $10k.

Quote
Online cockfighting and gambling have been described by former Speaker Alan Peter Cayetano as the “new pandemic” that requires immediate government action in order to save Filipino families from social, moral and economic degradation.

not sure if he will suceed with his campaign.  its governed by the big boys in the country namely Atong Ang. it could just be Cayetanos election gimmick since he is running for a position again but he has a good intention.

anyone who isnt from philippines, may really find this animal cruelty which may only exist underground but this cockfighting is already part of the culture. even when i was a kid i already been exposed to mini cockfighting arena every festival where people bet for the lives of the roosters.

government is also earning from these betting firms which is why its becoming a usual to approve bills.
should the government risk the teens today knowing that cockfighting arenas can routinely operate everyday online?  

This is good initiative by Cayetano knowing how big the risk if they will allow that online sabong to be legalize on that country. Many is a  risk knowing that this is well promoted by some popular vloggers and other personalities that's why its good to reject its legislative law so that it can save peoples life who's not addicted on this kind of gambling category. If this willl be totally legalized for sure there are so many young people will get addicted knowing how easy for them to access this thru online.

Well, I will be the one who bet only this online game [online sabong] and bet [talpak] there.
There is no issue on us on how to control ourselves from addiction and even financial status problems, but I don't know from others who are addicted to it already. I think the best is the have a users regulation and it should be teens age below cant create account and access the site and there should be a limit amount to bet per day and should not exceed the limit amount.
This is a serious problem for all most Filipinos who did know how to control themselves and I agree with the campaign and should have a limit.

The concern about those irresponsible bettors, they should be responsible and don't put that much even their entire life savings. They have to moderate their gambling so that they won't be ruining their lives. However, this is very popular in gambling and they're losing everything they can in an online cockfight. Since no physical cockfights are allowed and it's still part of the measure to avoid covid-19 traction, it is the solution that they've found in continuation of it.

Frankly cockfighting should be banned in every civilized country because it is just a blood sport involving two animals that are pitted against each other, often with razors added, to inflict the most violence. The whole thing is barbaric regardless of the betting aspect. It's a real shame that people have to bet on such "sports" when I bet a lot of them are supposedly religious, who are meant to spread the joy of God instead of spilling blood for entertainment purposes. There are so many gambling games out there already that can be played digitally without harming any animals, so let's hope he succeeds at banning it and making the Philippines a slightly better place.

Cockfighting is popular in the country that attracts other to do it online due to pandemic. It started last yar that attracts those who fo cockfighting Unfortunately everyone can access it that even young  one’s are able to play. There should be a stricter implementation of it as it affects many lives that abuses themselves in being addicted to play and gambling alot. We don’t know why these game even allowed when they know the percentage of numbe who gets insane or loses alot due to this.

I understand that cockfighting in the Philippines is an integral part of history, but in my opinion this kind of gambling should be banned in the first place because of the cruelty to animals. I read in an article that these roosters are not only tortured to make them angrier but also drugged. In my opinion this is overkill.

Limited in number. Limitless in potential.
I want to know if cockfighting is legal in the philippines? if not then the philippine government should close all gambling sites that provide cockfighting and fine the owner because it is very detrimental
It is legal and illegal, depends on the place and occasion. It's part of the country's culture that even exists since year 1500 and I don't thing banning it will be easyor possible. Big businesses are behind it.

Well, cockfighting is really addictive, even young ones enters and to bet in the locals.
Even before the online sabong (online live cockfighting) there is already live television for it other than the one in the locals but all of them are regulated.

As for the news, I don't think Cayetano will succeed to this, many big politicians (and big businessmen) are on this business so it wont work, though Cayetano's concern is somewhat right regardless his purpose of acting up to this.

Cockfight isn't an exclusivity of Phillipines. I know there are people in another countries who are also adepts of this gambling category and wish to legalize it in their own countries. Personally I'm totally against cockfight, not because it's a betting activity financially harmful to gamblers involved on it as justified by the article, but because it totally disrespects and abuses the animals that are incapable of rational thinking. I consider cockfight torture of the worse kind, especially because it includes mutilation. It's a very sadistic practice to put two animals to fight for entertainment purposes. So it really should be suppressed by authorities, land based or online ones.
