@@gintaemin It’s so ridiculous, ironic and laughable that these people who vote for the same people are most likely also complaining about the lack of opportunities, and low pay in the country, while politicians become wealthier!
I've heard of hiding in plain sight, but running for mayor and establishing yourself as political figure and winning executive power, as a spy? That's... I mean, lowkey impressive.
Honestly, nobody knows her in my town. She was just introduced by a former politician. In a very corrupted country like the Philippines, cases like this are possible. Someone really influential made her win. Money talks after all.
I remember during this case, that I kept commenting that she would escape using local waterways to either Indonesia or Sabah. The route has been used for years by Filipino workers working in Brunei to get there without having to process passports and visa's.
Wow, Megan, this is an absolutely riveting and well researched piece! You’ve uncovered the layers of this complex case with such clarity and depth, it’s truly impressive. The way you connected the dots between Alice Guo’s actions and their broader implications for Philippine politics and security is both eye-opening and thought provoking. Thank you for dedicating your time to bringing this important story to light, especially on Christmas Day. Your hard work and commitment to quality journalism don’t go unnoticed. Wishing you a Merry Christmas 🎄 and continued success in your reporting!
kinda funny how i was seeing that everyone was making edits/fancams of Alice Guo before all of this happened. Then rumours just started sprouting everywhere and she actually was a spy. Straight out from a tv show
Thank you Megan for putting this on the spotlight. It is always good that someone not from the Filipino media is covering this. elimates all biases, just facts.
I love how Megan pronounced the provinces and difficult surnames of the officials ❤ Its really Listening to true Asian and NOT trying hard to sound likes ausi, American or brit just like anybody else I have watched.
What's annoying about the senate's "research" regarding Guo is that although we already knew "Alice" was fake, they kept their focus on her identity... in making her say "Yes, I am actually Huaping". They should've diverted their attention to who helped her in Bamban then moved on to which bigger fish helped her forge documents. The longer their televised hearing went on, the more trust I lost for our politicians. It felt like they were milking the screen time to appeal to the public. They should've given this job to the judicial branch 'cause the senators don't really know how to ask tricky questions and it was all pathetic. Fun fact: they still have televised hearings in the senate now (I'm guessing they have a Christmas break atm though). I bet it's gonna stop near the elections which is on the month of May. 🙄
This is definitely the biggest highlight of 2024 and national issue here in the Philippines. It started around march this year(the investigation) and was in the news until now! And as a filipino, I feel really ashamed and disgusted about the illegal connections of our own politicians and government employees also some high rank officials 🤧
Hi Megan! I am so glad you have covered this case. It's not the usual "m*rder" case we usually hear from you. As someone from the Philippines, this trial case was like a telenovela that everyone watches the senate hearing. Now in local news, this case has died down since her detainment in Pasig Jail we do not hear that much anymore, we're glad you brought it up again as Filipinos forget social/political issues over time. This case has something more than what you have covered today -- she was also dubbed as the "amnesia girl" because her answers in senate are always "I don't remember anymore" and lots of meme showed up as well. Anyway, Merry christmas to you and your family and thanks for a new case on Christmas Day 😊❤ Btw, red looks good on you!! 🎉❤😊
When cases are filed already in court there's a sub judice rule that prevents public commentary from influencing the outcome of the legal proceedings. The reason everything is quiet now about Alice Guo, Cassandra Lee Ong and Apollo Quiboloy
Hi Megan. Thank you very much for thoroughly covering this. I’m a Filipino and it’s frustrating that our journalists are losing interest in discussing this alarming issue with former mayor alice leal guo. I pray that God will protect our country from the likes of Alice Guo. Our ancestors fought really hard for our independence and it’s saddening that Alice Guo has manipulated fellow Filipinos. 🥲
I hope this is a wake-up call to the Philippine government. There might be an ongoing investigation into the lower branches of the government that handle and screen a person's eligibility to run for any position.
thank you for covering this, it's huge but suddenly being disregarded she's now going to Vail I believe, and is still be able to run for mayor, so unbelievable !!!
trust me when she was called at the senate in aid of legislation some people who live in the area defended her claiming that she's nice & at least she helped a lot of residences unlike other officials.Which kinda made the morality of other people like me who read there comments online decreased coz it's a big slap in the face it's an indication that the system that was suppose to serve & protect it's people is already rotten beyond repair since it's people lose trust & would rather choose a foreign to help them which can only be a facade to gain more than what they're giving.
they were mad cause the mayor they voted cause she LOOKED CUTE got ousted yes PH people voting politician because of their looks or if they are a famous tv star
She has supporters there, they liked her because apparently, she's more visible as a mayor. It tells you more about Filipino politicians in general when even a person with questionable background gets support just because it's more apparent that she's taking care of her constituents.
From the Philippines myself living in Metropolitan Manila. I have heard this case like many am shocked and it has considerable cause of tension for some especially to those from the subgroup known as the Chinese Filipino community known to most as Tsinoys since most in truth barely have a political side on the issue ( Also since more actually have more closer to the governmentin Taiwan than the mainland) . So far kudos to your reporting and discussion on this case it is so far the most objective and clear I have seen. I hope you continue to make more of these videos.
thanks Megan for covering the case so I can understand what was going on, because my Indonesian sister(not biological) got deported from the Philippines a few days ago. Apperently, she said the Filipino immigration deliberately deports Chinese, Indonesians and Norwegians just for money. And unfortunately, she was one of them. But still, thanks for covering the case. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi, I'm from the Philippines. The evidence is all there, but our justice system is too weak. I would like to commend Senator Hontiveros for all the hard work she has done in this case. She is the only opposition senator who opposes the legalization of shady POGOs, while other senators, like Senator Gatchalian, are all pro-POGOs. From the start, Senator Hontiveros has been the only one pushing for this case to be taken to national hearings. When this issue gained attention and many Filipinos were watching the hearings, several senators tried to ride the wave of public interest. However, when Senator Hontiveros revealed evidence linked to the previous administration under Duterte, she was the only one who showed up and bravely asked questions until the last hearing. Additionally, the Quad Committee has done a commendable job in this case. They revealed a lot of evidence and conducted thorough investigations. However, as lawmakers, they do not have the authority to prosecute those involved
Thank you for covering this topic! Iyouve done such amazing research and layed out the timeline so well! Considering such a confusing topic. Please keep up the amazing work ❤❤❤
Thank you for covering this Megan! Unfortunately, some Filipinos are offering their support and admiration to Alice Guo. They even have fan groups editing videos claiming her innocence.
I believe that this video is the best surprise I could have received this Christmas, simply because it's an interesting story made much now intriguing by your factual way of telling it. Thank you so much, and Merry Christmas!
I subscribed to this channel for the dark and mysterious topic interests but I've never expected it to converged with my other interests as well. How exciting
Thank you Megan for covering just a little itch hearing you refer to West Philippine Sea as "South China Sea" :(( in international court made a tribunal decision that it is part of the EEZ of the PH
Our previous Mayor and now one of the Senators, Sherwin Gatchalian is really putting his heart and time to fight against Alice Guo. This is a heavy international issue and rather hard to get rid of. Now no one is talking about it because it shifted to Sara Duterte and BBM issues.
after getting a lot of publicity, this issue is already forgotten here in the Philippines. if she is who they say she is (a spy) she just evaded the public spotlight and went off-the grid. i hope all of us get a follow up on this.
Thank you for this very in-depth story Megan! Yes, we should be vigilant in protecting our democracy. Filipinos tend to forget these things. I hope, with your video, many of us are reminded of this incident especially with the upcoming midterm elections.. 🙏 To my fellow Filipinos, please let us not lose hope for our Motherland.
Thank you for covering this! Months later people are forgetting this and was actually more invested with celebrity gossip
Filipinos should pay more attention on who they are voting for in government rather than idolising self serving, fame hungry celebrities!
@cebuanagirl1591 I doubt that,even university graduate people here in my town are still gonna vote those same people it's actually hilarious
@@gintaemin It’s so ridiculous, ironic and laughable that these people who vote for the same people are most likely also complaining about the lack of opportunities, and low pay in the country, while politicians become wealthier!
@@gintaeminthat's what you call brainwashed and indoctrinated ppl. that's sad.
@@gintaemin SO TRUE!!!
I've heard of hiding in plain sight, but running for mayor and establishing yourself as political figure and winning executive power, as a spy? That's... I mean, lowkey impressive.
Honestly, nobody knows her in my town. She was just introduced by a former politician. In a very corrupted country like the Philippines, cases like this are possible.
Someone really influential made her win. Money talks after all.
Tbh, Chinese spies have infiltrated many lower GDP Asian nations. Their goal is to influence political decisions for China,
This is very common.
I know right!! She was born and raised to deceive!!
Literally something out of a spy film
But spies do lie low and try their best to not get any attention.
From Manila, Philippines: Truth is always stranger than fiction!!! May God have mercy on our country. 😭
Nooo. May you Filipinos have mercy for your country. You Filipinos are so corrupt.
I remember during this case, that I kept commenting that she would escape using local waterways to either Indonesia or Sabah. The route has been used for years by Filipino workers working in Brunei to get there without having to process passports and visa's.
Brunei mentioned 🇧🇳🇧🇳🗣️🗣️‼️
Finally, you made a video about her and posted it on Christmas Day! You earn my subscription! I love your videos!
Been waiting for you to cover this issue here in Philippines. Thank you! Mabuhay. 🇵🇭

I learned more from your coverage than my local news. really, thank you for sharing this!!
This is so creepy. I wonder how people who grew up in the area must have felt to see her just pop up.
And won.
trust me when she was called at the senate in aid of legislation some people who live in the area defended her claiming that she's nice & at least she helped a lot of residences unlike other officials.Which kinda made the morality of other people like me who read there comments online decreased coz it's a big slap in the face it's an indication that the system that was suppose to serve & protect it's people is already rotten beyond repair since it's people lose trust & would rather choose a foreign to help them which can only be a facade to gain more than what they're giving.

Merry Christmas Megan, another great video as always. Any chance you could cover the Sayama incident of 1963?
That case was so crazy it actually had a major cultural impact on film, especially anime with famous works like Studio Ghibli's My neighbor Totoro.
Thank you Megan, Happy holidays ❤
Merry Christmas Megan!
Thank you for another riveting video. Seasons greetings and Happy Holidays to you & family.

I love your mitts!
Really interesting topic. You're so smart with your words.
I said to myself a few months ago that i hope megan covers this. Thanks megan!!
Finally this case was out in one of my fave mystery docu😭
Merry christmas megan!
I’m from the Philippines, and Alice Guo’s case is like a key to a pandora box 🙃
We Filipinos should not forget to question "How the hell did she pass COMELEC background investigation when she applied to run for mayor?"
Omg, Merry Christmas megan🎄
You missed out on her connection to She Zhijiang of the Golden Triangle, and how all of this is all part of the Belt and Road project
THIS
Merry Christmas, Megan
