00:00There's no Kaukulang Water Permit, but there are deep well pumping stations.
00:08The two wells that were raided in Bambang, Tarlac and Purak, Pampanga.
00:11According to PAOK, even though the compound that is being supplied in Bambang is huge,
00:16it pays only P3,000 per month.
00:20Salima Refran is a witness.
00:23It's a huge compound, but there's no water bill that comes to Lucky South 99 Compound in Purak, Pampanga,
00:30which was raided last June due to allegations of illegal activity.
00:35According to PAOK's Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission,
00:39it has its own water supply.
00:42Five underground deep well pumping stations were discovered there.
00:47The noise is this loud because the water supply is also this loud here in one of the five pumping stations
00:55that were discovered under this Lucky South 99 Compound here in Purak, Pampanga.
01:01We saw that there are huge tanks, huge pumps, and a lot of them.
01:07That's why we decided to go there.
01:09Because we know what will be the result of using too much water.
01:15The water will be trapped under the ground.
01:17The ground will collapse.
01:19We are still trying to get hold of the Purak LGU.
01:23In Baufu Compound in Bambantarlak,
01:25a mega deep well pumping station was also discovered in the dormitories.
01:31It's two floors deep,
01:33the machines are growing,
01:35and there's a huge water reservoir.
01:37But the water bill per month is only P1,000 to P3,000.
01:43If you look at it, it's so far from their huge area
01:47where 3,000 to 5,000 people can live.
01:53There's also an Olympic-sized swimming pool.
01:56We think that the receipt is just the front of this pogo hub
02:03to say that it pays for the water.
02:06Bamban LGU will return and review the plans of the compound.
02:11As for the water, we can't see it in the plan.
02:14Maybe we can just hide it and review it again.
02:17But as of now, there's no emphasized water line.
02:23They will get it from the concessionaire.
02:25Just investigate that running water.
02:30The ground might collapse because of the large volume they are getting.
02:36According to the National Water Resources Board or NWRB,
02:40they want to estimate how much ground water they will get.
02:44Because they inspected two pogos before,
02:47most of the deep wells came out non-operational.
02:50But based on the large number of turbines and other information,
02:54the population of pogos in Bamban and Purak,
02:57as well as establishments such as restaurants and dormitories,
03:01it can be said that a lot of water is extracted in the area
03:04without a proper water permit.
03:07Bawful Land Development Inc. built the compound in Bamban
03:11during the outbreak of the COVID pandemic.
03:14The president of the company, suspended mayor Alice Guo,
03:17released a statement on Facebook last night.
03:20Her priority now is health and peace of mind
03:23following the trauma she experienced due to the hearings
03:26and the cases filed against her.
03:29Her question is, why is Senator Wynne Gatchalian,
03:35Sen. Risa Ontiveros, and other officials
03:39ready to face the law of corruption and corruption?
03:45Attendance before the Senate hearings is adherence to the rule of law.
03:50So, sadly for you,
03:52your attendance in the Senate is not equivalent to your social media.
03:57Don't worry, we're not fixated on you.
04:01We're just allergic to the public.
04:04Why is it that whenever there are talks like this in the Senate,
04:08it's always said that it's not going to change
04:11until you face the proper forum?
04:14We've heard that, right?
04:16And when the court issued a warrant,
04:18it didn't show that either.
04:20The lack of willingness to give up and volunteer to show
04:24and answer simple questions,
04:26even though they're not being forced to confess,
04:29is a sign that someone is hiding something.
04:32Sen. Gatchalian believes that
04:34Guo's Chinese passport still has a visa
04:37that was used last in 2011.
04:39And it's possible to use it to go to China.
04:43My theory, this is just my personal theory,
04:46that his Chinese passport is still alive.
04:49And in an event like this,
04:52he'll be arrested,
04:54he'll be able to go to China using his Chinese passport.
04:58For now, there's no hold departure order against Guo.
05:01But his lawyer has already said that
05:03his client is in the Philippines.
