Philippines: Exploitation, human trafficking, and organized crime in Philippine Offshore Gaming Operations

rawpixel.com

In recent years, the Philippine offshore gaming operator (POGO) industry has come under intense scrutiny due to its alleged ties to a wide range of criminal activities, including human trafficking, cryptocurrency scams, and organized crime. A series of investigations, raids, and rescues conducted by Philippine authorities have uncovered alarming patterns of exploitation and abuse within the POGO sector.

Reports have emerged of Filipino women being trafficked to China under the guise of marriage, with suspected links to Chinese crime syndicates operating in the Philippines. Additionally, hundreds of Filipino and foreign workers have been rescued from POGO establishments, where they faced illegal detention, forced labor, and even torture. Authorities have also discovered that some POGO companies serve as fronts for elaborate cryptocurrency scams, coercing employees to work long hours and deceive clients.

As the government ramps up its efforts to combat these crimes, the POGO industry faces increased pressure to address the serious allegations of human rights abuses and criminal activities within its ranks.
