00:00 The University of Tunggigaro City denied that they have more than 4,000 Chinese students.
00:05 They said that when they heard it on camera, where the Department of Foreign Affairs was presented.
00:11 Witness, Jonathan Andal.

00:17 The Department of Foreign Affairs was told earlier by the House Committee on Justice
00:23 the investigation of the addition of Chinese students in Cagayan.
00:27 Why they were not alarmed by the number of visas they gave to Chinese students there.
00:33 And you saw, there's an ed-casite there.
00:36 Didn't you see the numbers and alarm our ESOP, our MICA, our Immigration Commissioner before all this happened?
00:46 We don't have detailed information as to which schools they are enrolled in for the 9F or the 9A.
00:58 Our office and our Undersecretary will be conducting an interagency committee meeting on visa concerns tomorrow
01:08 precisely to address these issues.
01:11 The University of Tunggigaro denied that they have 4,600 Chinese students, as stated by a congressman.
01:20 We never reached 4,600 total of Chinese students enrolled in any year at St. Paul University Philippines.
01:30 Currently we have 828 Chinese students.
01:36 We have no data showing of the 4,600 students.
01:40 Based on our data for St. Paul's University for 2023, 1,464 only applied for conversion and 52 applied for extension.
01:55 The University also said that they are only able to provide 10,000 dollars or more than half a million pesos
02:01 for each foreign student for the entire course and not 1.2 million pesos, as stated by a congressman.
02:09 According to the ChED, in the past 7 years, Chinese students are second to the most foreign students in the country.
02:15 Second to the most foreign students is Region 2, if that's the case.
02:20 What is it about Tunggigaro that made the Chinese students enrol there?
02:27 With the high influx of Chinese students, didn't it become a red flag for the ChED?
02:34 We did not see a concern yet at that time.
02:37 The influx of Chinese students came in the academic year 2023-2024, Madam Chair,
02:45 because during the pandemic, it was really online.
02:47 So there were no foreign students at that time.
02:51 So this year, we will conduct the inspection, Madam Chair.
