Balutan urges PCSO employees to close ranks vs detractors

PHILIPPINE Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) General Manager Alexander Balutan has called on all officials and employees to close ranks against what he described as continuing efforts to discredit and destroy the agency by “vested political interest.”

“They want to bring back the old days – the old system that fattens the pockets of a few such as gambling lords and their protectors,” Balutan said in a statement.
