00:00In the last hearing of the Senate regarding the illegal smugglers,
00:03it was revealed that the former Presidential Economic Advisor Michael Yang
00:08played a major role in the Chinese intelligence operations here in the Philippines.
00:11Dismissed by Mayor Alice Guo, who is a well-known Chinese spy,
00:17was called by the National Intelligence Coordinating Agency, or NICA,
00:20as an agent of influence.
00:23First news, Mab Gonzales.
00:25Who is Alice Guo?
00:31That is the question of many when the former Mayor of Bambantarlac
00:35was called by the well-known Pogo Hub in their town.
00:37But in the in-depth investigation, the question also arose.
00:41Is Alice Guo a Chinese spy?
00:43I am a Filipino, I am not a spy.
00:45The National Intelligence Coordinating Agency, or NICA,
00:49has not yet confirmed if Alice Guo is a spy or a goa-ping,
00:53but she is an agent of influence.
00:56She uses her influence, her stature, or her position
01:02to influence public opinion or decision-making
01:05to produce results beneficial to the country whose services they benefit from.
01:15So to that effect, Madam Chair, that is applicable to her.
01:18Guo did not hesitate in the last hearing on Pogo
01:21of the Senate Committee on Women and Children.
01:23The case of qualified human trafficking against her
01:25is also being heard in court in Pasig.
01:28But the case of Xie Zhijiang was discussed again,
01:31the man who confessed in a documentary that he is a Chinese spy.
01:35Before, Xie said that Alice Guo is also a Chinese spy.
01:39Xie entered the Philippines in 2011.
01:41She was convicted in 2014 for the operation of an illegal casino.
01:45But it seems that Xie's record is still undisclosed.
01:48In 2017, Xie obtained a visa in the Philippines.
01:52It looks to me that someone powerful made these derogatory facts about Xie Zhijiang disappear.
02:00And just as a note, this is usually done for intelligence agents.
02:04Xie also obtained Pogo licenses.
02:07He was one of the biggest before.
02:10Xie?
02:11Yes.
02:12Sen. Risa Hontiveros also praised Xie's picture
02:15with former Presidential Economic Advisor Michael Yang.
02:19Hontiveros said that Yang was involved in Chinese intelligence activities in the country.
02:24Michael Yang is a key actor in Chinese intelligence operations here.
02:30Michael Yang was involved in farmally,
02:33and if the reports are accurate, in drug operations here.
02:39Michael Yang, the former President's economic advisor.
02:43We've been judged, and we've been scammed.
02:47Let's go back to the picture released by Yang's lawyer.
02:50It is not a proof, and it is not fair to draw a conclusion
02:54just because the two people are in the picture.
02:57Nika said that they monitored Chinese hackers
03:00called APT or Advanced Persistent Threat Groups.
03:04It is possible that they are sponsored or backed by the government of other countries or criminal groups.
03:35The Philippine Statistics Authority or PSA
03:38said that their target this year is to investigate
03:41the 50,000 rare birth registrations in the country.
04:0424 of these records have been endorsed to OSG
04:08for the filing of the petition for cancellation.
04:11It is said that the cancellation of Alice Kuo's birth certificate is one of the reasons why they filed the petition.
04:16This is the first news.
