Clark Grand Leisure Corp. received approval from the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. of its request to voluntarily suspend its PAGCOR Provisional License for its integrated resort and casino project situated in Clark Global City in the Clark Freeport Zone, Pampanga. CGLC sought for the voluntary suspension of its license due to some lingering uncertainties surrounding the casino gaming industry especially with more competition in the Clark, Pampanga location. The voluntary suspension also allows PHR to ramp up and focus all efforts for the construction and development of its integrated resort and casino project, the Emerald Bay Resort and Casino, located in Mactan, Cebu.
