00:00I still don't get it, Madam Chair, why she cannot disclose it in public?
00:05Isn't it more natural to expose it in public so that she is protected?
00:15I don't get it, Madam Chair.
00:16I really don't get it.
00:17If you are having a death threat, you wanted to say it in public so that you can be protected,
00:23if you really wanted protection, Madam Chair.
00:26So it doesn't make sense.
00:28Saying it doesn't make sense, Madam Chair.
00:32I agree, Sen.
00:33Joel.
00:34Actually, if you really have a death threat, if you really want protection, you will say
00:41it.
00:42The security threat has nothing to do with your name.
00:47That's already established.
00:49The threat will not be made worse by confirming what is in documentary evidence.
00:54But in any case, I would like to remind you that according to the Supreme Court, in the
01:00case of the Office of Court Administrator v. You, the right to self-incrimination does
01:05not prohibit legitimate inquiry in non-criminal matters.
01:08This is ad naseum.
01:10We are almost doubting this again and again.
01:14Alice Guo, ladies and gentlemen, is continuing to lie to this committee despite glaring evidence
01:21that she is a Chinese national named Guo Huaping, whose father, Jian Xiong Guo, is Chinese,
01:28based on her own declaration in this committee, and whose mother, Lin Wenyi, is also Chinese,
01:34based on her own declarations in bank documents, by the way, verified by the AMLA.
01:39This is a blatant defiance of the legislative's constitutional power of inquiry.
01:46It turns out that you are not playing our laws.
01:49You are turning the Filipinos around.
01:52But you are changing the Senate.
01:54You are changing the Senate.
01:56I move to cite Guo Huaping, also known as Alice Guo, in contempt of the Senate for testifying
02:03falsely and evasively before this committee.
02:06Second the motion, Madam Chair.
02:16I move to cite Guo Huaping, also known as Alice Guo, in contempt of the Senate for testifying
02:23falsely and evasively before this committee.
02:26I move to cite Guo Huaping, also known as Alice Guo, in contempt of the Senate for testifying
02:32falsely and evasively before this committee.
02:35I move to cite Guo Huaping, also known as Alice Guo, in contempt of the Senate for testifying
02:41falsely and evasively before this committee.
