Senator Sherwin Gatchalian revealed on Monday that nearly P5 billion in cash and checks were deposited into the personal bank accounts of dismissed Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo and two of her companies between 2018 and 2024.
During the Senate hearing on illegal Philippine offshore gaming operators (Pogos), Gatchalian presented Guo with bank records and financial documents obtained by his office. These documents indicated that she was an “active participant” in setting up the Pogo hub in her town, which was raided and shut down by authorities in March.
The senator reported that the disgraced mayor and her business associates had hired a "fly-by-night" Chinese construction company to build 36 multistory buildings on the 7.9-hectare property owned by Baofu Land Development Inc., which Guo previously led as president.
