Sa SALN ni Mayor Guo na inilabas ng Senado, nakadeklara na nagmamay-ari siya ng tatlong dump truck na nagkakahalaga ng 2 million pesos ang bawat isa, isang motor vehicle na nasa 11 million pesos ang halaga, at isang helicopter na nagkakahalaga naman ng 60 million pesos. Maituturing nga bang “simpleng tao” ang alkalde? Saan nagmula ang mga ari-arian na ito? Panoorin ang video.

00:00 Despite her saying that she was on a farm that she stayed for several years.
00:05 During the 2022 election, Alice Guo's name suddenly appeared and the mayor of Bamban ran as an independent candidate.
00:18 Thank you very much for your support to my team, Alice Guo.
00:23 [Cheering]
00:25 Based on her statement of contributions and expenditures, she spent more than P130,000 in the campaign.
00:35 For an LGU position, that's very difficult.
00:39 Especially since she was an opponent, she was a barangay chairperson.
00:44 How did she do that? How did she win in Bamban?
00:49 I guess she endeared herself to the people by whatever means.
00:55 Until recently, she was very active on social media.
00:59 Of course, it's a big help if there are people who endorse her.
01:02 It's really amazing.
01:04 We got the opinion of a political analyst about what happened to Mayor Alice Guo.
01:11 Because what we're talking about here is the integrity of our election.
01:15 Our candidates, the voters, should be the first to agree with the law.
01:25 Let's vote for my team!
01:28 If her identity or nationality is questionable, how did she manage to run?
01:35 Did she really get a vet?
01:37 Because that's the job of a comelec.
01:40 Especially when we're talking about the basic things, like is she a citizen?
01:48 Thank you very much!
01:50 The duty of the commission is ministerial,
01:54 where we will receive the certificates of candidacy
01:57 as long as all the items in the form of COC are complete and this is under oath.
02:03 That means we don't have the power to request additional documents
02:08 because we cannot reject the filing of the certificates of candidacy.
02:16 In the several times that Guo was asked about the Senate,
02:20 she repeatedly said that she is a Filipino.
02:24 I am a Filipino.
02:25 What is the implication if it is proven that she is not a Filipino citizen?
02:31 If Mayor Alice Guo is proven to be not Filipino,
02:33 one immediate implication is that she might be removed from the position of mayor.
02:39 Guo repeatedly said that she is a simple citizen.
02:43 You have assets of almost 300 million pesos, Mayor,
02:46 so for me, she's not just a simple person.
02:49 But in the documents obtained by the Senate in the Land Transportation Office or LTO,
02:54 16 vehicles were registered under the name of Mayor Guo.
02:59 Some of these are luxury cars whose prices are not less than 4 million pesos.
03:05 Why does it matter? Because she's a Filipino government official.
03:10 For you to be official in the government, you simply need to be Filipino.
03:15 If you cannot say or show consistently your documents, it will be insecure.
03:23 Do you believe that she is not a Maclaren?
03:26 She said that she was just borrowed.
03:29 She said that she was in a buy-and-sell.
03:31 When we first saw the conduction sticker,
03:35 when we raised it in the LTO,
03:37 it was not on a Maclaren, but on a Hamac utility vehicle.
03:43 And two days later, we saw the Maclaren again,
03:46 but the conduction sticker was gone.
03:48 There is no document that will prove that I am the owner, Your Honor.
03:52 Because there was a car show in Tarlac at that time.
03:56 There is no document. I just borrowed it.
03:59 In the Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth or SALEN issued by Mayor Guo by the Senate,
04:05 it was declared that he owns three dump trucks worth 2 million pesos each,
04:11 a motor vehicle worth 11 million pesos,
04:14 and a helicopter worth 60 million pesos.
04:18 But Guo said that he sold the chopper to a British company in 2024.
04:24 I really wanted to do business with the chopper.
04:26 I wanted to make it like an air taxi.
04:29 However, it did not push through.
04:31 I just sold it.
04:33 His cash-in-bank is worth 200 million pesos.
04:36 He also declared liabilities of 250 million pesos.
04:41 Aside from the vehicles,
04:43 Guo also looked into several businesses.
04:47 In the documents issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission of the SEC,
04:52 it was found that before Guo joined politics,
04:56 he was already an incorporator and major shareholder of 11 companies since 2010.
05:02 One of these is the QJJ Embroidery Center in Valenzuela City, which is the listed address.
05:08 When I checked this in our business permit section,
05:13 there was no such company in Valenzuela now and in the past.
05:17 Now, there is no such company.
05:19 Before, I did not know because I was just a child.
05:22 Okay.
05:22 Yes. I'm sorry.
05:24 And then when I checked this 58 T. Santiago,
05:28 this address is exactly the same address where one of our friends lives.
05:34 Aside from the embroidery business,
05:38 there is also a meat shop, slaughterhouse, smelting plant, and farm that is registered to Guo.
05:44 Even if you add up all the income of those,
05:48 Can you do it?
05:49 Even if you add up all the income, you cannot afford one pogo.
05:52 It's too much.
05:53 It's too much.
05:54 Aside from his equity, the land.
05:57 Mayor Guo is also an incorporator in Bawful Land Development, Inc.
06:04 But it came out in a survey of two of Guo's co-incorporators
06:08 that they are involved in the largest money laundering case in Singapore.
06:13 I did some research through Google and I saw that
06:18 the two are involved in money laundering in Singapore.
06:24 And I just found out yesterday when I saw your Facebook post, Madam Chairman.
06:30 Do you believe her? Almost completely unbelievable.
06:34 Who is it that will buy the land that he bought from the original owners over time,
06:42 which constituted almost 8 hectares,
06:45 and will put it as equity in a business?
06:49 It's a huge business.
06:51 Pogo.
06:52 Even if they don't know who will be my co-incorporators
06:57 in my precious land and in a big business.
07:03 Just this Tuesday, Reporters Notebook went to the municipality of Bambantarlak
07:10 to send an invitation to Mayor Alice Guo for an interview.
07:15 We also went to the declared address of the mayor
07:18 in the documents submitted to the Senate.
07:21 But until now, he hasn't responded to our letters.
07:26 We also talked to several residents of Bambantarlak.
07:30 I heard something but I didn't see it.
07:33 It was just a sudden election.
07:36 And then suddenly, he introduced himself.
07:40 I've seen Mayor since I was a child in his farm.
07:45 From what we know, he's a good mayor.
07:50 Just this May 21, Mayor Guo released an announcement on his social media page.
07:55 Here, he again denied his involvement in the illegal operation of Pogo
07:59 in the Baufu compound in the city of Bambantarlak.
08:02 He also said that he's not a spy of any country,
08:05 just like what he's being accused of.
08:08 He also said that his municipality doesn't accept any report
08:12 on the illegal activities inside Pogo
08:15 before it was operated by the authorities.
