‘Dragon King’ scores ₱122.4-M win in Casino Plus, says historic jackpot 'felt like a dream'

Casino Plus, the country’s leading PAGCOR-licensed digital entertainment platform, has formally awarded ₱122,409,603.00 to its latest grand winner, marking the turnover of the biggest jackpot in Philippine slot machine history.

Rooted in Casino Plus’ Player-First Philosophy, the platform fully honored the verified winner's explicit request for complete identity protection. The winner attended the ceremonial handover masked and strictly identity-protected. Choosing to be identified publicly as "Dragon King," the winner considered the historic milestone as "God's plan" for him.

The jackpot winner, who described the historic milestone as "God's plan" for him, revealed what he would do with some of his winnings continue his advocacy of helping other people and his family.

"Tutulong tayo sa mga kababayan natin. [Ang] family members and friends ko, kasama sila sa lahat ng plans. It’s all God’s plan talaga. Hindi natin alam kung mananalo tayo or matatalo. Actually it is not the first time that I won in Casino Plus. The place to be is at Casino Plus," the winner said.

He also described his win as something that "felt like a dream," taking note that the gaming platform ensured him his jackpot prize would be withdrawn fast and safe under PAGCOR regulations.

"Hindi ako makapaniwala. Parang akala ko nananaginip lang, akala ko lasing lang ako. Pero noong may tumawag sa’kin, totoo nga," the winner candidly shared.

During the interview, Dragon King said he exclusively plays on Casino Plus. His gaming journey began on the platform's popular Color Game which holds the record for the biggest single digital gaming payout to date in Philippine history at ₱303.5 millionbefore he eventually shifted his preference to live slots.

With conviction he has a message to his fellow players: "Huwag maging gahaman! If nanalo ka na, know when to stop.Ang panalo naman is not all the time eh. Kailangan mo lang din ng timing," the jackpot winner said. 

"If they want to play, kailangan maging responsible lang sila. Kailangan mag-allot lang din sila ng amount para hanggang dun lang," he added.

While the ₱122.4 million hit headlines the industry, it reinforces a broader pattern: Casino Plus has established a track record as the premier platform where historic, record-breaking payouts consistently happen. This monumental slot machine turnover builds on an unprecedented series of jackpot milestones for the platform—including the historic ₱303.5 million Color Game jackpot in August 2024, a massive ₱271.4 million turnover in April, and the processing of more than ₱1 billion in validated jackpot payouts during the second quarter of 2026. Together, these historic figures set new industry benchmarks for player liquidity, operational scale, and regulatory transparency.

"Mr. Dragon's story of strength, loyalty, faith, and perseverance reflects what Casino Plus stands for," said Evan Spytma, Chief Executive Officer of Casino Plus. "The ₱122.4 million  payout is not an isolated event; it represents our commitment to providing a world-class platform where players experience legitimate, life-changing moments under full PAGCOR oversight."

Behind every record payout lies Casino Plus unwavering Player-First Philosophy. Aside from guaranteeing fast and transparent financial payouts through ironclad surety mechanisms and reserve backing, Casino Plus treats Identity Protection & Personal Safety as a core pillar of player protection. Operating under strict PAGCOR regulatory guidelines, the platform respects every winner's right to anonymity, ensuring that multi-millionaires can celebrate their life-changing moments without compromising their long-term personal and family security.

Trans-Asiatic Trading Expands Distribution of Gerflor Streamo Marine Vinyl Flooring to Key Philippine Shipyards


 Trans-Asiatic Trading is extending the reach of its Wheelmark-approved Gerflor Streamo marine vinyl flooring range into the Philippine shipbuilding sector, strengthening its position as a trusted regional supplier of IMO-compliant interior systems. The move brings Streamo's Karavel, Mariner, and Steamer product lines directly to Philippine shipyards constructing and refitting passenger and offshore vessels, giving local builders faster, more direct access to certified flooring backed by Trans-Asiatic's decades of marine and industrial equipment sourcing experience.

The expansion responds to a straightforward market reality: as Philippine shipyards take on more inter-island ferry and offshore accommodation projects, demand for flooring that meets IMO fire test protocols and Wheelmark certification has grown alongside it. Trans-Asiatic's existing relationships with major shipowners, shipbuilders, and industrial companies across the region position it to support that demand with a supply chain already built for compliance-first procurement, meaning shipyards no longer have to navigate certification requirements and international sourcing on their own.

At the core of the offering is the Streamo range itself: high-performance homogeneous flooring engineered for heavy-traffic corridors and crew areas, paired with luxury vinyl plank options for cabins and passenger spaces where design matters as much as durability. By distributing this range directly to Philippine shipyards, Trans-Asiatic is positioning itself not just as a supplier but as a technical partner, helping engineering and design teams specify the right product for each deck, from high-traffic zones to accommodation interiors, without compromising on IMO compliance.

For Philippine shipbuilders and vessel operators, the expanded distribution means shorter lead times, local support, and direct access to one of the marine industry's most recognised flooring brands. Trans-Asiatic Trading invites shipyards and operators across the Philippines to get in touch to discuss Streamo product specifications, availability, and how the expanded distribution network can support upcoming newbuild and refit projects.

World Literacy Day 2026: ASSIST and LGUs Redefine Literacy Through Life-Skills Board Games

  

In observance of International Literacy Day, Asia Society for Social Improvement and Sustainable Transformation (ASSIST) is highlighting the urgent need to redefine literacy for the modern era: moving beyond traditional reading and writing toward a functional, active "operating system" for daily life.

While global benchmarks historically measure basic reading comprehension, today's economic, environmental, and social challenges demand a broader framework. Navigating 21st-century realities requires functional, financial, vocational, and climate literacy—equipping individuals with the competencies needed to translate critical information into informed, real-world decisions.

ASSIST bridges this gap by transforming passive instruction into hands-on, gamified learning tools that make life-skills education collaborative, engaging, and directly applicable across all age groups.

"As the world evolves, literacy shifts from being just a subject into an operating system for life," said Rhyanna Ilagan, Senior Associate for Product Development, Strategy & Innovation at ASSIST. "Being able to read a text doesn't automatically mean someone knows how to navigate these real-world skills. The purpose of our games is to create a safe space where players can learn, practice, and make mistakes—preparing them to make critical decisions through behavioral change long before a real crisis happens."

Gamified Learning Suite Building Real-World Competencies

To advance functional literacy across diverse communities, ASSIST has developed an interactive suite of scenario-based toolkits:

Master of Disaster (MOD): A gamified disaster risk reduction board game teaching emergency preparedness, hazard signals, and community-wide safety coordination.

Money Matters: Portable flashcard sets designed to demystify budgeting, debt management, investments, taxes, and fraud prevention.

Success360: A career preparedness toolkit offering structured guidance on job interviews, workplace scenarios, and professional growth.

i2Can (Inspire & Ignite): An educational board game empowering young learners (ages 7+) across environmental sustainability, health, safety, and ethics.

Through strategic cross-sector partnerships, ASSIST integrates these tools directly into local government units (LGUs), public school systems, non-governmental organizations, and corporate risk management programs. In 2025 alone, ASSIST distributed over 1,000 units of Master of Disaster, driving measurable engagement across classrooms, local communities, and corporate settings.

"When we bring games like Master of Disaster into communities and schools, we promote literacy by encouraging participants to read scenario cards out loud and speak in front of the group," explained Bea Leana Hernandez, Partnerships Associate at ASSIST. "Instead of passive classroom listening, this gamified approach forces face-to-face social learning through real-time group debate and decision-making. It transforms players into active, informed social citizens who are equipped to protect their families and lead disaster response in their own communities."

Unlocking Opportunities for LGUs and Corporate CSR Partnerships

To scale the reach of these tools on International Literacy Day and beyond, ASSIST is opening avenues for Local Government Units (LGUs) and corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) arms to adopt and sponsor these gamified learning suites.

"Government agencies like the DILG see immense value in MOD, utilizing it as an anchor educational tool for local disaster resilience. On the corporate side, companies integrate MOD into their Business Continuity Week training. They procure units to equip their workforce with practical safety skills and sponsor donations to local public schools, where their employees volunteer as facilitators," added Hernandez. "It bridges internal risk management with impactful community development."

Aligning with International Literacy Day's emphasis on functional literacy, ASSIST is also actively expanding the global footprint of its gamified toolkits. Adapted versions of Master of Disaster are currently deployed in India for regional cyclone preparedness, with Taglish, Bisaya, and Vietnamese editions releasing soon to eliminate language barriers and expand educational access.
