August 20, 2024 Philippines Crime & Legal

Dismissed Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo has reportedly left the Philippines despite being on an immigration lookout.

Senator Risa Hontiveros presented evidence indicating that Guo, who is also known as Guo Hua Ping, used her Philippine passport to fly to Kuala Lumpur on July 18, 2024. From there, Guo traveled to Singapore, meeting her family before heading to Indonesia.

“I am now in receipt of information that in fact this person was already out of the country on July 18, 2024 to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Ipapakita ko po ang dokumentong ito, bilang patunay na pumasok sa Malaysia si Alice Guo. Siya po ay pumasok ng 12:17:13 military time ng July 18…” Hontiveros said in her privilege speech during the August 19 session of the Senate.

“Tumuloy si Alice Guo sa Singapore, kung saan nag tagpo tagpo sila ng kanyang magulang na sina Lin Wen Yi at Guo JIanZhong. The couple flew in from China on July 28, 2024. Mistulang reunion sila doon kasama sina Wesley Guo at si Cassandra Ong.”

Ong is known as the representative of Lucky South 99, the raided POGO hub in Porac, Pampanga.

ABS-CBN News reports that Guo allegedly used a Philippine passport when she left Manila on July 18, 2024. She flew on the airline Batik Air and landed in Kuala Lumpur on the same day.

On July 21, Alice Guo boarded a Jetstar Asia Airways flight to Singapore, where she stayed until the early hours of August 18. She then took a ferry to Riau, Indonesia, on the same day.

The Bureau of Immigration initially denied knowledge of Guo’s departure but later confirmed the information, suspecting she used illegal means to exit the Philippines. The Presidential Anti Organized Crime Commission also corroborated this, citing foreign intelligence reports.

“Mr. President, who allowed this travesty to happen? Sino ang may kagagawan nito? Hindi makakaalis si Alice Guo kung walang tumulong sa kanya na mga opisyales ng pamahalaan. Para tayong ginisa sa sarili nating mantika,” Hontiveros exclaimed during her speech, expressing frustration over how Guo managed to leave the country despite being on a watchlist.
