Jueteng in the Philippines is just like a harmful virus, once it infected a host, it is difficult to cure unless there is an antidote to that effect. In Philippine setting, the local people is an easy host because of the influence of money. Jueteng is illegal and the money collected is distributed or pocketed by few individuals such as the operators, politicians, police officers and some media men as compared to Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), the funds are collected by the government for health programs and charities of national character.
In Baguo City, Jueteng is very much alive.
Jueteng is one of the source of corruption. What do you think is the best antidote to it?
