Metro Manila where a number of large-scale casino resorts is located within the Entertainment City zone is again under the most restrictive “enhanced community quarantine” until at least August 20, as countermeasure against the further spread of Covid-19 in the region.
“As with past lockdowns, gambling operations of Pagcor sites and licensees are covered by government guidelines for this purpose. Venues affected by the latest community quarantine classifications will abide with suspension of operations and/or capacity restrictions, accordingly, including specific local government restrictions where applicable,” said Pagcor spokeperson.
Under the earlier and more relaxed general community quarantine, gambling had been permitted at “limited capacity”, under the instructions of the local authorities.
A number of casinos in the Entertainment City zone has confirmed a temporary shutdown of gaming operations starting today. Most shops and restaurants at these complexes will also be closed under the more restrictive quarantine measures.
Under the new measures, indoor tourist attractions in Metro Manila “may not operate”, and outdoor tourist attractions shall “be allowed at 30 percent venue capacity.”
All of the Philippines will remain under some sort of quarantine classification, depending on each region’s situation regarding the Covid-19 pandemic.
