00:00Senator Joel Villanueva issued a resolution
00:03that strongly denies that there will be no more firewood in the Philippines.
00:07Senator Chis Escudero called for the PNP to be ashamed
00:11that until now, the suspended Bamban Mayor, Alice Guo, is still looking for rice.
00:17Daniel Manalista has the details.
00:23There will be no more firewood in the Philippines.
00:26That is what some senators want.
00:29According to the President's order to ban firewood,
00:32Senator Joel Villanueva issued a resolution
00:36to ensure that there will be no more firewood in the country.
00:40Under Senate Bill 2752 of Villanueva,
00:43firewood will be permanently revoked.
00:45Some of the possible causes are already here.
00:48In a hearing of the Senate Committee on Women,
00:50Solicitor General Hingil Sa Pogo was asked,
00:54Is the opinion of Sol-Gen that the firewood inside the export processing zones,
01:01such as CESA and others, are also covered by the President's ban?
01:06Good morning, Madam Chair.
01:09In the statement made by the President of SONA,
01:16even though it is just one-liner,
01:19the policy statement that he said and there are no qualifications,
01:26that all firewood are banned, is clear.
01:31In the Senate investigation,
01:32Anino has not yet ruled out the suspended Bamban Mayor, Alice Guo.
01:37But if you ask Senate President Francis Escudero,
01:40if this is enough reason to increase the budget of PNP and NBI,
01:44that Guo is still looking for rice,
01:46then they will not be able to see the others.
01:49Again, this is not a carrot and stick,
01:52you will be punished if there is a mistake,
01:54if the budget is not spent.
01:56We need to look at all the circumstances around that.
01:59My answer is yes,
02:01it is shameful for PNP that this cannot be done.
02:06Especially that they are still here in the country,
02:09according to the Bureau of Immigration.
02:11According to Sol-Gen Guevara,
02:12the case against Guo will continue,
02:15whether he is seen or not.
02:17Guo is now facing a co-warrantor petition
02:20that he can be removed from the public office.
02:22Sol-Gen also said that if he is declared ineligible
02:26because of his foreign citizenship,
02:28it will be prohibited for Guo to go to the halalan in front of him.
02:31Guo's remedy is naturalization.
