I would like seek clarification from your good office if we are covered person under AMLA as amended. This is since BDO has seems rejected my bank application for my new business venture “Game Whiz Sports Promotion Services”- a sole proprietorship company which I recently established. Please refer to attached file presentation and DTI documents for reference together with my email below explaining about this new business and my profile as a business person. Please note that this is e-sport business and not related to any form of gambling.
