State-run Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. (Pagcor) assured yesterday that the planned casino and entertainment center in Boracay will not be destructive to the environment, instead would help preserve the natural beauty of the premier tourist destination. Andrea Domingo, Pagcor chairperson and chief executive, assured that Galaxy Entertainment Group (GEG) will help preserve the environment in Boracay, adding the lack of a proper sewage system is one of the island’s biggest environmental problems. Domingo also said that Galaxy would replicate in Boracay the good environmental practices used in its projects in Macau.
