00:00At Punto de Vista, Professor Antonio Contreras will discuss the involvement of suspended Mayor Alice Guo in the Pogo Hub, which has reached the Senate's investigation.
00:11Professor.
00:21Good morning, Gayan, and to all of you there in the studio.
00:24Many people have lied to the public about Alice Guo.
00:34Although everyone is presumed innocent until proven guilty, there is strong evidence coming out of the Senate.
00:44She said she grew up on a farm.
00:47There is evidence presented to Senator Katyal that is not true.
00:53She claimed that she was homeschooled by Teacher Ruby Lin, but there is a record that she studied in a school.
01:01And not only that, there are many other issues that are coming out of her public statements.
01:11So the question of the people is this.
01:14How did Alice Guo happen, if it is true that she is not a Filipino citizen?
01:22If it is true that she is a Chinese national, there are documents proving that she is a Filipino citizen.
01:30How did she have the documents to strengthen her candidacy as Mayor of Mamban, in Tarlac, and won against her?
01:39So this is what we should ask.
01:42Of course, we should separate and talk about whether we should make Pogo illegal.
01:49There are those who say that it should be made illegal, but some say that it should be regulated
01:56because it is a waste of money to pay for it.
01:58That's a different discussion.
02:00But the other discussion here is how did this kind of behavior happen?
02:09We will not have a Mayor Alice Guo if there is no official banner.
02:17If there is no one who is able to testify, to connive, to receive a bribe.
02:23We don't know.
02:25So that the process of her documents can be easier.
02:30And that is a deep problem, not just for Alice Guo.
02:33How many more Alice Guo will we discover?
02:38The time is now to talk about how we will arrange our bureaucracy.
02:47Bureaucracy in the Philippine Statistics Authority, in the Comelic,
02:52in the bureaucracy where we will use the proofs that you are a Filipino citizen.
02:58And the bureaucracy of obtaining documents to prove that you are a Filipino citizen.
03:05We don't want this.
03:06We are receiving visitors from abroad.
03:09This is not about Alice Guo or the Chinese.
03:13We welcome them as tourists.
03:19We are not greedy.
03:21We don't want to see foreigners having fun while in the Philippines.
03:27But we have a system of laws.
03:32We have a system of regulations that we should enforce.
03:35I repeat, there will not be an Alice Guo if there is no real Filipino who is involved in her work.
03:43Or if there is no real Filipino involved in her work, she will be forced to connive to have an Alice Guo.
03:52This is not an accident.
03:53There are many cases like this.
03:55This is the only controversy that we are talking about right now.
03:57But how many more foreigners have obtained their packing papers?
04:03Just because of neglect or corruption in our bureaucracy.
04:10That is what the Senate should address.
04:12That should be the subject of the legislation.
04:15And it is right.
04:20The violation of Alice Guo's life is right.
04:23She should be brought to court so that we can prove if she committed adultery or not.
04:28That is my point of view today.
04:31Thank you very much.
04:32Back to you in the studio, Diana.
04:34Good morning.
04:36Thank you, Professor Contreras.
