In-venue audience and live broadcasting or telecasting in cockfights, though, are prohibited

Cockfighting activities are now allowed in areas placed under modified general community quarantine or lower following the approval of the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF).

The IATF gave its green light for the operation of licensed cockpits and cockfighting activities, which must be subject to strict compliance of health and safety protocols.

However, in-venue audience and live broadcasting or telecasting are prohibited. The IATF has yet to give details on how cockfights can be watched.

Online or remote betting is also not permitted.

The IATF added it is still the discretion of local government units whether they will permit cockfighting activities in their localities.

Also given the thumbs up to operate are off-track horse race betting stations in areas placed under general community quarantine or lower. – Rappler.com
