00:07But the mayor's office said it's possible that Guo won't be able to attend because of the trauma she suffered during the hearings.
00:15Sanja Aguinaldo is on the line.
00:20This morning, her lawyer, Alice Guo, spoke to us.
00:24But Attorney Stephen David said it's possible that she won't be able to attend the Senate hearings on Wednesday.
00:30According to Pogo, the mayor has trauma from the hundreds of hearings.
00:36When I spoke to her, she said it's possible that she won't be able to attend because of the trauma she suffered.
00:42She's facing a lot of allegations against her and she's still shouting there. Her stress level is too high.
00:50Senator Riza Ontiveros and Sherwin Gatchalian said that if Guo won't be able to attend, she can be contempted and arrested by the Senate.
01:00According to David, Guo is taking medication. However, she can't get a medical certificate.
01:21Where is Guo?
01:23According to the Office of the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms, the subpoena was placed on Guo.
01:28They found out from the people of her farm in Tarlac that the mayor hasn't been there for a few weeks.
01:35According to the Maypetch on July 4, the subpoena was not placed on the mayor, his siblings and parents on the farm.
01:42But they left a copy when Guo visited there.
01:47The people of Sergeant-at-Arms also went to the municipality of Banban to talk to Guo's personal assistant.
01:54But he refused to accept the subpoena.
01:57They also left a copy of the subpoena there.
02:00Guo's lawyer accepted the subpoena, but it was clear that Guo is just their client.
02:07According to Attorney David, they will wait for the cases to be filed in court against Guo.
02:13Senator Riza Ontiveros' reaction is that the mayor should first consider the safety of his first lie and deception to the Senate.
02:23It's not only Guo who is traumatized, but also the human trafficking victims,
02:28the Taiwanese and Filipinos who were forced to work in the Pogos Camp compound.
02:33Even the Filipino citizen is traumatized that there is a Chinese national who became the mayor of the Philippines.
02:40Ontiveros also said that it is important to talk about mental health,
02:44but Guo can't use it to escape from the responsibility, especially since he is a public servant.
02:51He refused to listen to it because the truth will give him peace of mind.
02:58Cominec Chairman George Erwin Garcia ordered the Cominec Legal Department to form a fact-finding committee
03:05to investigate if it was right for Mayor Guo to file a Certificate of Candidacy for the 2022 elections.
