00:00Dismissed by Mayor Bantarlac, Alice Guo is now being contempted for her re-appearance in the Senate.
00:06Guo was left in a dilemma in answering questions about her personality and her departure from the country.
00:13We have the first news, Sandra Aguinaldo.
00:19Who really helped Alice Guo to leave the Philippines?
00:24It's hard to get an answer from Guo when she appeared in the Senate.
00:28Guo said that they left Manila on a yacht with Sheila and Wesley Guo.
00:34They were on a trip from Asia.
00:37They didn't have a cell phone then.
00:40They boarded a boat that sailed for four days and boarded a smaller boat to Malaysia.
00:47The trip was free and Guo insisted that she had no obligation to leave the country.
00:53But when the Senators asked who the yacht came from,
00:57Who facilitated you to use the yacht?
01:01Madam Chair, I really want to say this but I can't say it in public.
01:06I'm really scared.
01:07Ms. Alice, our patience is running out.
01:10I hope you understand that I'm really scared.
01:13I really want to discuss this.
01:15You really want to discuss this with us.
01:18You're getting on my nerves.
01:21The name that Alice Guo wrote on the paper was not shown to the media, but the Senators said...
01:27The person you wrote on the paper is a holder of five passports.
01:31Why did he or she facilitate your escape?
01:35Maybe he or she is guilty.
01:37What's happening to me right now?
01:39Is this the name you wrote on the paper?
01:42Is this what's stopping you?
01:44Is this what's stopping you?
01:47Last time, it wasn't exactly, but I heard something.
01:51What did you hear?
01:53Sen, I refuse to answer for my safety.
01:57Did you escape or were you escaped?
02:01Sen, he initiated, but along the way...
02:05So he escaped you.
02:06Along the way, we weren't together.
02:09Isn't this your mastermind?
02:11Is this the mastermind of all of this?
02:12Is this your mastermind?
02:13This person?
02:14Sen, I don't have a mastermind.
02:16Okay.
02:17So you're the big boss of all of Pogo in Bamban?
02:20I'm also not the big boss of Bamban.
02:22When Ms. Moniguo admitted, she was the one who escaped to Malaysia.
02:27That's why the Senators decided that Guo was already in the Philippines...
02:31to launch his counterattack in Laisay...
02:34in the complaint of Qualified Human Trafficking...
02:36in front of the notary public, Attorney Elmer Galicia.
02:40I'm just asking you, Ms. Alice...
02:42Do you know Attorney Galicia?
02:44Sen, let me just talk to him.
02:46My God.
02:47Allow me, Your Honor, to...
02:52to claim the confidentiality of the Executive Session.
02:58The Executive Session, like what was said earlier...
03:02is related to national security and public safety.
03:08Does it have anything to do with whether you know Mayor Alice or not?
03:12It has nothing to do with that, as far as I know.
03:14According to Ms. Guo, she was the first sister of Mayor Alice.
03:19Even though they are not real siblings,
03:22Ms. Guo considers her father as her father.
03:26Yet, Ms. Guo is just friends with Mayor Lizeldo Calugay...
03:31who was sentenced by the Senate...
03:33after not being able to attend the Senate hearing.
03:36She received GMA Integrated News from the municipality of Suwal...
03:40to get her report, but she didn't go in because of the dengue fever.
03:45We're just friends. Sen, he's not my boyfriend.
03:48Ms. Guo has also been asked for a long time...
03:51about her acquaintance.
03:53Her fingerprints are the same...
03:56as those of Ms. Guo Hua Ping, based on an investigation by the NBI.
04:00For your own sake, and for the sake of our committee,
04:04just one last time on this very simple, fundamental question.
04:08Are you Ms. Guo Hua Ping?
04:11Madam Chair, I'm not confirming.
04:14There's a case against me. I will answer to the court.
04:19The Senate has a right to know who we're talking to.
04:22Is it a real person we think, or someone else?
04:25Madam Chair, I'm Alice Guo.
04:27We've proven that you're not Alice Guo.
04:30You're the real Guo Hua Ping.
04:33It's not just the committee that came to that conclusion.
04:36It's the NBI itself and another agency.
04:40There are still many questions that Guo hasn't answered.
04:43My question is, you have a monitor in front of you.
04:46You can see the passport page.
04:48Is that you in that photo? I'm not asking for your name.
04:52Madam Chair, there's a pending case against me.
04:55You answer!
04:57His right against self-incrimination has been repeatedly invoked.
05:01And he has a small margin in his life.
05:03That's why he can't answer the questions.
05:06Madam Chair, that answer is unacceptable.
05:19Ms. Alice, I'm reminding you,
05:21you never raised security concerns to the committee before.
05:25This is the only time you were arrested and brought here.
05:28After the session, after the hearing, what will happen to me?
05:33That's why for the second time, the former mayor was cited in contempt.
05:38I move to cite Guo Hua Ping, also known as Alice Guo, in contempt of the Senate.
05:43You will remain in the custody of the Senate until the conclusion of this committee's inquiry
05:50or until you finally recognize the authority of this body
05:54and grant even a semblance of respect for the laws of this country.
05:58The committee will coordinate with any court.
06:01This is the first news. Sandra Aguinaldo for GMA Integrated News.
