MANILA – Officials of the Clark International Airport Corp. and the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) recently signed a memorandum of agreement for the establishment of the state lottery's back-up draw court facility.
The 4,000-square-meter facility will be located along Ninoy Aquino Street at the Clark Civil Aviation Complex in the former location of the Philippine Red Cross bio-molecular laboratory during the coronavirus pandemic.
In a statement on Monday, the PCSO said CIAC president and chief executive officer Arrey Perez and director Rommel Ma. Santiago and PCSO general manager Melquiades Robles and assistant general manager for Gaming, Product Development and Marketing Sector Arnel Casas signed the pact on Aug. 2.
The MOA allows PCSO to develop a CIAC property for the facility.
In exchange, PCSO will provide CIAC with advertisement slots during PCSO broadcasts, support for its corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives, and will donate emergency response vehicles or ambulances for the use of both the CIAC and its locators.
Robles said the PCSO facility “should not just be a back-up waiting for disasters but should be equipped with high-end, broadcast quality production equipment which can serve CIAC and the community of Clark, as well.”
“We would like to thank president Perez for this privilege of letting us use your assets. The convenience of having it here is very helpful for PCSO,” Robles said.
Perez said the agreement was done in record time and “promotes a strong corporate relationship between the two institutions.”
“We are happy to meet minds with the PCSO and welcome you to the Clark where your back-up facility will soon rise and, hopefully, become your preferred and primary draw court facility. Thank you for trusting CIAC,” Perez said.
He said the PCSO committed to the innovation of sweepstakes games to expand its advocacies and mandate such as health programs, medical assistance services and other charitable projects.
“Like you, we are committed to uplifting the life of Filipinos (and) we are happy to contribute to your expansion. This MOA is more than an agreement between two agencies in the service of the people; it is, by necessity, a collaboration to strengthen each other’s most noble functions,” Perez said.
He said the PCSO’s assistance in corporate advertising will help CIAC in building the Clark Airport City through its seven flagship projects on top of the support for CIAC’s CSR projects and medical assistance programs.
“In exchange, we promise you safety, security and reliability as our commitment to you in your vision to expand your programs as you see fit. If the facility evolves in the future, that means our partnership have strengthened and grown, too,” Perez said. (PNA)
