The Philippines regulator will ask integrated resorts where there are government-operated casinos to provide templates on how they deal with security threats and disasters.

“We are looking into their security measures [to see] if there was any leniency or if it was lax, and how they managed the fire situation,” Pagcor chair Andrea Domingo said, following the gunfire attack at Resorts World Manila.

She added that they were reviewing the hotel complex’s contract to operate a casino to determine if there were violations or lapses.

Depending on the gravity of the violations, the disciplinary action may range from a reprimand and payment of damages, suspension of the license, to cancellation of the license to operate a casino.

The institution would also require Resorts World Manila to submit all footage taken by its surveillance cameras to aid the agency in its investigation of the incident.
