00:00Hundreds of drums of oil were smuggled from Malaysia to a motorboat in Bataraza, Palawan.
00:06The smuggled oil will fall into the gas stations.
00:10This is reported by Emil Sumangil, Exclusive.
00:16On a patrol boat, the anti-smuggling unit of the BNP Maritime Group
00:21caught sight of this huge motorboat.
00:23It's almost missing.
00:24It's 300 meters away from Ursula Island in Barangay Rio Tuba, Bataraza, Palawan.
00:30Security! Security!
00:31Don't tie it up! Don't tie it up!
00:33When they got close, the police came.
00:35Okay, one more! One more!
00:37Okay, get in!
00:39There! Don't get in!
00:41Okay, go!
00:42That's when they discovered hundreds of drums of oil, like diesel,
00:47that will fall into the gas stations in the province.
00:50Based on our investigation, this came from Mangsi Island, Balabac, Palawan.
00:57But these fuels were taken from Pudat, Malaysia.
01:03It will be sold here in the southern part of Palawan,
01:07in Bataraza, Brooks Point, Quezon, Palawan.
01:10That's where it's distributed.
01:12The captain and ten crew of the vessel,
01:15known as the Balabac, were arrested.
01:16We are still trying to get hold of them.
01:19They are facing allegations of illegal sale of oil products
01:23and violation of the Tax Reform Acts of 1997.
01:27The police will investigate.
01:29The dealers and smugglers of oil can go to jail.
01:34There is no criminal permit and there is no tax on these products.
01:39This means that it is prohibited to buy them.
01:42For GMA Integrated News, Emil Sumangil,
01:45Nakatutok, 24 Hours.
01:48In addition to the live stream of the illegal video,
01:50the victim was seen at the Pogo Hub in Porak, Pampanga.
01:54It was seen by a witness holding an authority
01:57that is related to the Pogo boss, Lin Shun Han,
02:00to Alice Guo.
02:01And that's what Darlene Cai is talking about.
02:07I just remember everything.
02:09Because I was the only one who saw it.
02:12I cried.
02:13We spoke to an emotional witness
02:15who told us about what he witnessed
02:17when he was making and selling illegal video,
02:19particularly to the owner of Laki South 99 Pogo in Porak, Pampanga.
02:23There was a live selling video.
02:27He was making videos so that they can sell them
02:32to foreigners, to other countries.
02:37According to the witness,
02:39the witness will prove that Alice Guo or Guo Waping
02:43has a connection to Lin Shun Han,
02:45a.k.a. Lyudong or Boss Boga,
02:47the so-called Godfather or Boss of all Bosses of the Pogos
02:51who started these operations in the Philippines.
02:54Maybe it was Madam Wah who reported to Lin.
02:58Boss Boga got the money from Madam Wah.
03:02They had a bond with their money.
03:08His statement and knowledge about the operation is important.
03:14Lin was arrested last Thursday
03:16on a mission order from the Bureau of Immigration.
03:19He was with 12 Chinese nationals,
03:21including officials in the illegal Pogo operations.
03:24They were all 12.
03:26We are also checking the backgrounds of those 12.
03:31Maybe they have cases in China.
03:35What we can see is that they are on the managerial side.
03:39They are like a group.
03:41They are now friends with Lyudong.
03:44The deportation proceedings against the 12 Chinese nationals
03:47are about to start.
03:48They are considered as undesirable aliens.
03:50Lin said his business is a restaurant.
03:53When I asked him why he has bodyguards with guns,
03:57He saw the news.
03:59In the Philippines, it's dangerous.
04:01So he got the bodyguards to protect his family.
04:06Even the Senate Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations,
04:09and Gender Equality Chairman, Senator Risa Hon Tiveros,
04:12said that the committee established Lin's connection
04:15with the establishment of the Scam Hub in the Philippines.
04:17But it was confirmed that she has a grudge against the government.
04:20The committee will invite Lin for their last hearing.
04:24We tried to get a copy of Guo's file,
04:26but they did not respond to our texts or calls.
04:29For the GMA Integrated News,
04:31Darlene Cai, 24 Hours.
04:34Visited in Camarines Norte is an illegal house
04:37where Chinese who have a tourist visa are working.
04:42This was reported by Ma'am Gonzales.
04:48The Bureau of Immigration,
04:50Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission,
04:53AFP and PNP,
04:55is a mineral processing plant in Barangay Tugo
04:58in Paracale, Camarines Norte.
05:00According to the PAUC,
05:0111 Chinese nationals are involved in illegal mining
05:05based on the complaint of the governor of the province.
05:08It's like a backyard,
05:09but you can see how big the equipment they use is.
05:13It's not small-scale,
05:15it's open-pit, large-scale mining.
05:19A Chinese man was caught by the authorities.
05:21He's in a lot of trouble.
05:26Many.
05:27Some of them don't have protective equipment.
05:30They're still sleeping.
05:33So they're operating as if nothing happened.
05:36According to the PAUC,
05:37the company has an environmental compliance certificate in one place,
05:41but their expansion to other areas is already illegal.
05:44That is already a blatant violation,
05:47the environmental compliance certificate.
05:50They also have a criminal liability aspect.
05:55The Chinese only have a tourist visa,
05:57so they shouldn't be working in the Philippines.
06:00They will be brought to the PAUC
06:01for an inquest tomorrow on immigration violations.
06:04They will also be fined for violating the Philippine Mining Act
06:07and Clean Water Act.
06:08The owner of the land where the Chinese are mining
06:11refused to give a statement.
06:13We are also trying to get a statement from Paracale LGU.
06:18For GMA Integrated News,
06:20Mav Gonzales has been detained for 24 hours.
