CAPAS, Tarlac -- Kamura Highlands Gaming and Holdings, Inc., the newest electronic sabong licensee of the Philippine Amusements and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), has been given a green light to start its operation.
The PAGCOR’s Board of Directors formally informed the Kamura Highlands Gaming ‘to commence operations’ at its government regulations-compliant venue at the 3-hectare Capas, Tarlac sports complex. The issuance of notice to commence E-sabong was approved during the board of directors’ meeting on April 6.
PAGCOR approved Kamura Gaming’s electronic platform and evaluated its systems in December last year after being welcomed in the electronic cockfighting industry in mid-November in the same year as the 8th licensee into the e-sabong industry.

Castro vowed to strictly comply with the regulations set by PAGCOR and the Capas, Tarlac local government which earlier also sanctioned Kamura Gaming’s sports arena in the area.
