00:00Because of various issues in POGO, POGO hubs or POGOs in large compounds are now prohibited.
00:07This was announced by POGOR Chairman Alejandro Tenco in a Senate hearing that was not attended by Bamban Tallac, Mayor Aliz Guo.
00:14This is Ma'am Gonzales' Hati-Hati news.
00:20As mentioned by suspended Bamban, Mayor Aliz Guo,
00:23in the submitted excuse letter, absent from the hearing of the Senate by the Mayor,
00:27he also did not have a lawyer to go.
00:29I think this letter of explanation is totally unacceptable.
00:33Therefore, I would like to move that we issue a warrant of arrest against Mayor Guo for her to attend the next hearing.
00:43To Guo Huaping, alias Aliz Guo, we will arrest you and will continue to bring you to the next hearing.
00:54Your continued refusal is, as Sen. Sherwin said earlier,
01:00a disgrace not only to the Senate, but to every Filipino who follows the law and is in violation of the law.
01:10Mayor Guo and other members of the Guo family,
01:13including his accountant Nancy Gamo and Dennis Cunanan,
01:17the former official of the government in charge of PIDAF SCAM,
01:20who became the independent consultant of the companies behind POGOR in Bamban Tallac and Porac, Pampanga.
01:26Before the arrest order can be issued,
01:28the committee must first issue a show-cause order to respond to Guo's camp.
01:32If their explanation is not acceptable,
01:35the order to arrest them will be postponed.
01:38According to the Bureau of Immigration in the Philippines,
01:41his name was also alerted in case he tried to leave the Philippines.
01:45In the hearing, Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian issued Guo's birth certificate and school records.
01:50He said he kept the birth certificate in school,
01:53where his mother is a Chinese national, Wen He Lin.
01:57Guo Huaping, or Aliz Guo, did not grow up on a farm.
02:02She did not go to home school.
02:05She went to school.
02:06She went to the same school as me, Grace Christian High School,
02:11for grades 1, 2, and 3, year 2000 to 2003.
02:16She did not go to home school.
02:18In our school, there was no farm.
02:20It was all buildings.
02:22The NBI also dismissed their fingerprint examination of Guo
02:26and Chinese national Guo Huaping.
02:28We are sure now that Aliz Guo and Guo Huaping are one person.
02:34Wesley Guo and Guo Huaping are one person.
02:42The NBI also discovered that another brother of Mayor Guo,
02:46Sheila Guo, also has a name.
02:48In our comparison, it turns out that this is a different picture
02:52compared to Sheila Guo, the so-called brother.
02:59The second Sheila Leal Guo is the same address as the second Aliz Leal Guo,
03:03but when she went to the NBI, there was no Aliz or Sheila Leal Guo there.
03:08According to the lawyer of Mayor Guo, his client is not hiding.
03:12If the Senate issues an order of arrest,
03:15they can file a motion to lift or remove the order.
03:18He is contacting her because he needs to speak.
03:22If he appears there and speaks, we can easily lift the warrant.
03:28The mayor's camp went to the Supreme Court
03:30to ask the Senate to stop inviting Guo as a resource person.
03:35He also asked for an Extremely Urgent Temporary Restraining Order or TRO
03:39so that the so-called ad justificandum that requires Guo to go will not be implemented.
03:44According to Guo's camp,
03:50After going to the Senate hearing,
03:52Guo became the target of online ridicule and humiliation
03:55and was called a Chinese spy and accused of committing a crime.
03:59He filed a lot of cases against him,
04:01so his constitutional rights, self-incrimination,
04:05it's unacceptable.
04:06Third, he has a lot of breach of privacy in his life
04:09that is public and should not be.
04:11So, we asked for help from the Supreme Court
04:16to excuse him from doing such hearings.
04:19When the lawyer of the mayor clarified,
04:21their client is just a fake Guo and his relatives are not with him.
04:25Pagcor Chairman Alejandro Tengco also went to the Senate hearing.
04:29He had an appointment with him on July 2023,
04:33the former Secretary Harry Roque.
04:35He was accompanied by Cassandra Ong of Lucky South 99 Pogo
04:38who was deceived by money
04:40and was not able to pay Pagcor up to half a million dollars.
04:44At that time, Lucky South 99 had a Pagcor license,
04:47but it was stolen by a raid in Porac, Pampanga.
04:50They also said that the arrears could be payment over time
04:56because they were deceived by Dennis Cunanan.
05:00After that, Attorney Harry Roque did not talk to me.
05:08He did not pressure me.
05:12As a lawyer, as his client,
05:16he just facilitated and talked to me.
05:19So there was no scenario that he was arrested?
05:21None.
05:22So Attorney Roque was just doing his job as a lawyer?
05:27Maybe because he said that he wanted to help
05:34the lawyer of Cassandra Ong.
05:40Roque could have denied that he was a lawyer of Lucky South 99
05:44or any illegal Pogo.
05:46His client, who owns the land where Porac Pogo Hub is located,
05:49is a member of Lucky South 99 Corporation.
05:51I did not lobby for an illegal Pogo.
05:53Because of the times I went there,
05:55I did not walk around with a license or a scheduling of payment
05:58for a company that was being serviced by the well-known company Worldwind
06:05which was legal at that time.
06:07Sometimes, I did not become a client of Lucky South,
06:11and if I became a client of that company, why would I deny it?
06:15According to Conanan's lawyer,
06:17he did not accept the claim that he did not come to the hearing.
06:20He also said that he will help in the investigation of the Senate.
06:23In the middle of the Pogo issues,
06:25the Pagour Chief said that they will now prohibit the Pogo Hub.
06:29In the meantime that there is no order of closure this early,
06:34I can inform everybody that we will not allow any hub
06:39existing or going to be applied for.
06:44We will not approve it anymore
06:46because we want to be site-specific and building-specific.
