Space lack spurs POGOs to move outside Manila

THE Philippine offshore gaming operator (POGO) sector is expected to expand outside Metro Manila as its demand for residential and office spaces continues to grow, according to a property services firm.

At his company’s 2020 real estate market overview and outlook briefing in Makati City on Thursday, Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) Philippines research and consultancy head Janlo de los Reyes said the industry would “continue to maintain its [growth] momentum in 2020.”
