00:00Congratulations on the arrest of Cassandra Leong and her brother-in-law, Bamban Tarlacmayo Alesbua, Sheila Guo, and on the search for the former mayor.
00:09We will now welcome Senator Sherwin Gatchalian. Good morning, Senator.
00:13Good morning. Good morning to our listeners.
00:16Justice Secretary Remulia said that Sheila Guo's case is not a priority in the Senate hearing because they will be under legal procedures.
00:24Did you talk to her?
00:27The Senate, DOJ, and BI talked about this.
00:33The House of Representatives also talked about the custody and transfer of two of Ales Guo's children, Sheila Guo and Cassandra Leong.
00:52They talked about how they will be transferred to the Senate hearings and House hearings because these two institutions have a pending arrest order.
01:04Now, they are under the custody of the Bureau of Immigration and DOJ for the processing of their papers and other cases.
01:18There will not be a conflict, in other words, because these institutions talked about the process and time of their presence.
01:31Is there a warrant for Sheila Guo to be transferred to the Senate?
01:34There is. She has an arrest order. I remember early in the issue, as early as May, there was an arrest order.
01:46We know, what is the role of Sheila Guo in these pogohubs in Boracay or Mamban, where they are now related?
01:53Sheila Guo is a close brother of Guo Huaping. We can see that in Guo family businesses, she has a high position there.
02:05She's either treasurer or corporate secretary. Ales Guo is the president of the company.
02:12We can see that they are not only close brothers, but they also work together.
02:18Their businesses were established and these businesses have a connection with the pogohubs in Mamban.
02:28What about Cassandra Leong? Just to refresh, what is the connection between Cassandra and Guo?
02:36We can see that when they were arrested, they were together. Cassandra Leong and Guo family are not different. They are very close.
02:46They both fled, they both ran away to Singapore, they both went to Indonesia to hide.
02:53There's an allegation that Ales Guo's brother, Wesley Guo, is Cassandra Leong's girlfriend.
03:03That's how close they are. Cassandra Leong is the center of the pogohubs in Boracay. She's the representative of Lucky South 99.
03:12She's also one of the officials of World Wind Corporation, which owns the land where the pogohubs are located in Boracay.
03:26In this development, Senator Gatchalian, do you have information that Ales and Wesley Guo will be arrested or brought back to the Philippines?
03:36I'm sure that Ales and Wesley Guo and their other associates will be arrested in Indonesia, in Bantang.
03:46Because the authorities there are no longer alerted and they cannot escape or go around that area.
03:55It's a matter of time that they will be arrested and brought back to our country.
04:00It's still questionable how he got out of the Philippines.
04:05He mentioned three backdoors. Do you have information on what backdoors they used here?
04:11Did they suddenly move to Singapore or Indonesia?
04:15You're right on that. The Philippines to Indonesia or Philippines to Malaysia leg, that's what's missing.
04:24There are documents that refer to his travels from Indonesia to Malaysia, Malaysia to Singapore, Singapore to Indonesia again.
04:39There are documents like that.
04:41But we cannot see the documents on how he went from the Philippines to Indonesia or Malaysia.
04:50It's still unclear where he landed.
04:52That's what we're asking to be checked.
04:54We're not only checking the backdoors, we're also checking the chartered flights and private planes.
05:01These documents can also be doctored to prove that he didn't leave the Philippines.
05:12You mentioned earlier that it's not true that he went to a notary public.
05:16There's CCTV footage from August 14. Can you provide evidence to prove this Senator?
05:25It's very clear that Alice Guo was not in the Philippines on August 14.
05:29The lawyer, Atty. Galicia, needs to answer this question that Alice Guo is not here.
05:43Why is he saying that he saw Alice Guo?
05:47He needs to explain what happened.
05:53Because it's clear that Alice Guo is not here.
05:55It's impossible for Alice Guo to return to Indonesia.
06:00He needs to explain this clearly.
06:04Senator, it's clear that Alice Guo can make documents.
06:10Correct. He can make documents, he can buy witnesses, he can buy witnesses.
06:19We know that these people won't lie if they can't be paid.
06:26Until the end, we can see that he's moving around to deceive the people of the country.
06:32Is this our direction in the hearing, Senator?
06:35The corruption in other government agencies to do this?
06:39That's right. That's what we will look at, especially when he left our country.
06:44How did he leave? Who helped him? Where did he go?
06:52These are the things that should be covered by the law.
06:57At the end of this investigation, we will make a law to cover these holes in our process.
07:05Thank you very much Senator Sherwin Gatchalian. Be careful.
07:08Thank you very much.
