00:00It was discussed in the hearing of the House of Representatives
00:02the illegal purchase of land by the POGOs.
00:07The name of a former presidential advisor was also mentioned in the hearing.
00:12Witness, Tina Panganiban Perez.
00:18A matrix was shown in the House of Representatives
00:21of the illegal purchase of land by the POGOs in some provinces.
00:27The matrix was formed based on the information found by the camera
00:31from the sale of Php 3.6 billion worth of shabu in Mexico, Pampanga, in 2023.
00:39Fernandez said,
00:41the owner of the warehouse where the drugs were sold
00:44was a partner of an incorporator
00:46connected to various corporations,
00:48like Pharmaly,
00:50which was involved in the overpricing of medical supplies
00:53in the government during the COVID pandemic.
00:56The financier of Pharmaly is Michael Yang.
00:58There seems to be a link
01:00in the ownership of drugs
01:05to these companies.
01:07The House Committee on Dangerous Drugs issued an arrest order
01:11against Michael Yang
01:13because of his involvement in the committee's invitations.
01:16Yang's lawyer, Atty. Raymond Fortun,
01:20refused to comment on the matrix.
01:22The GMA Integrated News is also trying to get a reaction
01:26from those who were mentioned.
01:27Fernandez also said,
01:29Michael Yang's brother was a transaction
01:32of suspended Bamban Mayor, Alice Go.
01:34Based on what I saw and my appreciation of the evidence,
01:38I think it's a money laundering scheme
01:42of drug syndicates
01:44that is being carried out by POGOs.
01:47These issues are also connected
01:49to the investigation by the House Committee on Public Accounts
01:52that it is illegal for Chinese nationals
01:55to buy land in Pampanga
01:57to run POGO sites.
01:59It was established also
02:01that those so many hectares of land
02:04are being bought
02:06by the different corporations
02:08whose incorporators are proven to be Chinese nationality.
02:14We all know that there is a constitutional prohibition
02:17for foreigners to own land in our country.
02:19We saw that someone enabled the sale to the foreigners.
02:25Allegedly, this is assisted by no less than the LGU.
02:30Some lawmakers clarified that not all of the names in the matrix
02:34are connected to illegal activities.
02:36Their investigation is ongoing
02:39to find out who is really involved.
02:42Together with the possible legislation
02:45that will result in these investigations,
02:47it will restrict the acquisition of Filipino birth certificates
02:51and Filipino passports
02:53and the purchase of land.
02:55For GMA Integrated News,
