In August 2022, Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr swore in a new board at the Philippine Gaming and Amusement Corp. (PAGCOR), installing businessman and close ally Alejandro H. Tengco as chairperson. Tengco will take over from Andrea Domingo. With PAGCOR walking a fine line between operator and regulator, Tengco will face some tricky decisions in the months to come, including whether to move forward with plans to sell its 47 casinos. While these plans were initially shelved in the wake of the health crisis, PAGCOR now faces fresh calls to revisit the op-regulator divide.
