00:00Personally, DILG Secretary Ben Hur Abalos and PNP Chief General Romel Martil
00:09are calling for the return of Alice Guo to the country.
00:12It is proven that in Indonesia, the two officials to convene the dismissal of the mayor,
00:19Patrick de Azuz, were present in the news.
00:22DILG Secretary Ben Hur Abalos and PNP Chief General Romel Martil
00:31are heading to Indonesia to meet with Dismissed Mayor Alice Guo.
00:36Two days ago, Abalos and Martil arrived at an airport in Jakarta.
00:43According to the Indonesian Embassy, the two officials were the first to inform
00:48about their trip to Indonesia to get help in bringing Guo back to the Philippines.
00:56It is only to prepare the groundwork for the meeting this morning
01:02that there were communications between the Indonesian Embassy and the Philippine institutions.
01:11On Tuesday, Indonesian police arrested Guo at a hotel in Banten Province, Indonesia.
01:17It is possible that Guo was able to return to the Philippines today
01:21due to a chartered flight with Abalos and Martil.
01:26The Indonesian Embassy has no further information about the reports in Indonesian media
01:32that their government is asking to replace Gregor Johan Haas in the case of drug smuggling.
01:40In May, Haas was arrested in Bogos, Cebu by the Bureau of Immigration operatives.
01:46I cannot make any statements on that because the talks have only just started this morning
01:55and nothing is only about to start, so I don't have any information to disclose.
