PCSO resumes lotto operations today

The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) has announced via a statement released earlier today, July 31, the resumption of its lotto operations following the lifting of suspension made by Malacanang last night.

Draws that will resume starting today include 6/42, 6/45, 6/49, 6/55, 6/58, 6 Digit, 4 Digit, Suertres Lotto and EZ2 Lotto. Keno and (Small Town Lottery) STL draws, however, remain suspended indefinitely.

The statement, which was signed by PCSO Vice Chairperson and General Manager Royina M. Garma, likewise advises those who bought advance play tickets to stay tuned in for further draw schedule announcements.

“Lotto draws that were suspended from July 27 to 30, 2019 shall proceed and will be conducted at the Official PCSO Draw Court at the PCSO Head Office, Conservatory Building, Shaw Boulevard in Mandaluyong City”, it said.

The PCSO immediately suspended its operation last Saturday after President Rodrigo Duterte announced via live broadcast the suspension of operations of the PCSO due to alleged massive corruption.

In its statement, the PCSO said it “continues its endeavor to fight and eradicate illegal gambling and corruption as the Agency thrives in serving the public, especially those who are in dire need of help.”
