jilihot Falsification, anti-dummy law raps slapped vs Guos

MANILAjilihot, Philippines — The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) yesterday filed complaints of falsification and violations of the Anti-Dummy Law against former Bamban mayor Alice Guo and four members of her family before the Department of Justice.

Ferdinand Lavin, NBI spokesman, said the complaints were lodged against Guo, her parents Jiang Zhong Guo and Lin Wenyi, and siblings Shiela and Siemen Guo in connection with the purchase of four parcels of land for their 3Lin-Q Farm in Mangatarem, Pangasinan.

Lavin said forensic examination of fingerprints and verification of documents from the Department of Foreign Affairs, Bureau of Immigration (BI) and the NBI revealed Guo and her family falsely claimed Filipino citizenship to acquire land and privileges reserved for Filipino citizens and corporations.

“They misrepresented themselves as Filipino citizens, when the NBI was able to sufficiently establish that they are Chinese citizens,” Lavin said.

The Guo family is also facing seven counts of falsification for alleged misrepresentations in their Securities and Exchange Commission incorporation documents.

According to Lavin, the family falsified their articles of incorporation, secretary’s certificate and general information sheet.

Also based on its findings, the NBI secured certifications from a barangay in Bulacan confirming that the Guo family never resided in the area, which the NBI said further disproved their claims of Filipino citizenship.

“This is an insult to our government – falsifying documents just to appear Filipino and enjoy privileges accorded by law to Filipino corporations and incorporators,” Lavin said.

She was accompanied by former senator Bam Aquino, who served as her campaign manager during the 2022 presidential race, which saw Marcos winning by landslide with more than 31 million votes. Robredo was Marcos’ closest rival during that election, garnering more than 15 million votes.

“We received this morning an order denying it,” Torreon told reporters in an interview on the sidelines of a pre-trial conference at the Pasig court.

He also revealed that the NBI is considering initiating forfeiture proceedings against their property.

“This is a wake-up call for regulatory agencies. We need to synchronize records and not simply approve registrations based on submitted documentsjilihot,” Lavin warned. — Daphne Galvez, Emmanuel Tupas
