House urged to look into prostitution rings serving POGO workers 0 SHARES Share it! Precious Hipolito-Castelo is urging the House Committee on Women and Gender Equality and the House Committee on Games and Amusements to jointly look into the proliferation of prostitution rings victimizing women for Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGO) workers. “I urge the House Committee on Women and Gender Equality and the House Committee on Games and Amusements to jointly look into this when Congress resumes session,” she said in a text message to the Manila Bulletin. 497, which calls on the Lower Chamber to look into the alarming proliferation of prostitution dens catering exclusively to POGO workers, will be immediately tackled. Joining Brosas in filing HR 604 were Bayan Muna party-list Reps. Carlos Isagani Zarate, Eufemia Cullamat, and Ferdinand Gaite; ACT Teachers party-list Rep. France Castro, and Kabataan partylist Rep. Sarah Jane Elago.
