00:10Alan Francisco was with us.
00:14Heads will roll.
00:15The government personnel who helped dismiss Bamban Tarlac Mayor, Alice Guo, will be held accountable.
00:23That is what President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. promised,
00:26following the news that the former mayor of the Philippines has been released.
00:30It is said that Guo first went to Singapore, and now he is in Indonesia.
00:35According to President Marcos, the departure of Guo's country was just announced
00:39that the justice system is being corrupted because of the lack of public trust in the system.
00:45He will be forced by the administration to expose those behind Guo's departure.
00:50The investigation has been carried out, and those responsible for this will surely be suspended and will be held accountable.
00:57President Marcos added that the government has no power over anyone who puts their personal interests
01:04above serving the people with dignity, integrity, and justice.
01:09Before this, the Office of the President ordered the Department of Justice and the Department of Foreign Affairs
01:15to cancel the Philippine passports of Alice Guo, her family, and a woman who is a member of the Philippine Online Gaming Operator, or POGO.
01:23Based on a memorandum dated August 20,
01:26signed by Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin for Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Rimulya and DFA Secretary Enrique Manalo,
01:34the Office of the President ordered the cancellation of Guo's passport,
01:39along with the children of Wesley Leal Guo, Sheila Leal Guo, and POGO representative Catherine Cassandra Leong.
01:47Executive Secretary Bersamin referred to the Republic Act No. 11983, or the Philippine Passport Act,
01:54which states that the Philippine passport is subject to cancellation if the holder or owner is a fugitive or hiding from justice.
02:03Bersamin mentioned the arrest warrants against Guo and his family.
02:07This was followed by Guo's refusal to participate in a series of invitations to listen to the illegal activities of POGO in the country.
02:15The Executive Secretary also added that there were criminal complaints against Guo due to trafficking.
02:20Other cases were also filed against the former mayor due to his involvement in POGO operations.
02:27Ong, who was helped by Guo in Singapore, was the first to be sighted in contempt of the camera due to his active participation in the hearings.
