00:00At this point, we will talk to Dina Sandoval of the Bureau of Immigration. Good afternoon and welcome to Balitang Hali.
00:07Good afternoon.
00:09Do you have any plans for the return of Mayor Alice Guo?
00:13Yes, we are coordinating with Indonesian Immigration with regards to the return of Mayor Alice Guo.
00:21We are anticipating that we will be expecting this within the week.
00:28Ah, so within the week. Today, it's still a bit unclear because there are still processes to go through for his deportation.
00:33We believe so. We have received information that he was arrested earlier, but of course, he needs a process before he can return to the Philippines.
00:44Even though we are talking about the Immigration Office of Indonesia, but how is the process of deportation of an undesirable alien?
00:53The deportation of an undesirable alien is very similar to the deportation of other countries.
00:58If they are being deported, they need to confirm their nationality in the country they are going to.
01:05The schedule is dictated by the country that is being deported to.
01:14It has been proven that Guo has already left the country.
01:16Will there be an investigation by the Bureau of Immigration as to how he escaped or is this ongoing?
01:21This is ongoing. This will not stop. Actually, the arrest of Mayor Alice Guo is a big piece of the puzzle.
01:28Aside from the information given by Sheila that allegedly they left from a private resort somewhere in Zambales,
01:38but we would have to corroborate that information that I received from Sheila to Alice Guo.
01:44If Zambales is a bit far from Zambales, or the information that they were transported by boat,
01:51is this possible because Zambales is far from the backdoor of the country, which is Zamboanga, Sulu area?
01:59Yes, that's something we have to verify.
02:01Alice Guo is the only one who can give us a clear answer to all of these questions.
02:08Ma'am, according to the picture that Paok sent us,
02:15was Mayor Alice Guo arrested in his house in Indonesia or the place where he lives?
02:24The place where he lives, although we don't have confirmation on the details of where he was arrested,
02:31we know that he was arrested early in the morning at 1 a.m.
02:35So it looks like he really lives there, but it's not clear if this is a residential area or a hotel.
02:41We're thinking it might be a hotel because he stays in a hotel in Indonesia.
02:48Okay, let's just clarify, he was arrested because of the visa of the arrest warrant of the Senate.
02:53And when he returns to the Senate, will he be released?
02:58Actually, he was arrested by the Indonesian authorities because they believe that he is also an illegal alien in their land.
03:05So they have a different basis there.
03:08They know that he is a fugitive here in the Philippines.
03:11That's why he was arrested by authorities.
03:14Once he arrives here, he will face a lot of cases here in the Philippines.
03:21All right.
03:22Was Mayor Alice Guo with him in the place where he was arrested?
03:31According to the information that we got from the Indonesian police,
03:34he was the only one in the area.
03:40All right.
03:41Thank you very much for your time and for clarifying the latest news.
03:49Anytime. Thank you. Have a nice day.
03:51Thank you very much.
03:52This is Dana Sandoval of the Bureau of Immigration.
