MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Just like the Department of Tourism is standing by its new slogan of “Love The Philippines,” the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation or PAGCOR is standing by its new logo which has been criticized by many Filipinos since it was unveiled by no less than President Bongbong Marcos.
In a press statement, PAGCOR said that the new logo was meant to spur some imagination on the part of the the beholder.
To prove its point, PAGCOR released an alternative logo depicting an image of a bird. It said such image is very appropriate to its mission since e-sabong is one of the gaming activities it is regulating.
E-sabong is the online version of the age-old Filipino pastime of cockfighting.
