During the resumption of the public hearing of the Senate committee on women, children and family relations chaired and presided over by Sen. Risa Hontiveros yesterday, Chinese Wang Fu Gui claimed that Alice Guo's mayoralty campaign itself was arranged by China's Ministry of State Security (MSS).
Wang, however, did not provide additional details.
He said he learned about Guo's being a spy from tycoon and self-confessed Chinese spy She Zhijiang when they were both detained in Thailand.
Guo won as mayor of Bamban in May 2022, but she was dismissed by the Office of the Ombudsman.
Hontiveros' committee yesterday aired Wang's recorded interview via Zoom during the 15th hearing.
Wang gave his testimony in Chinese, but the video had English subtitles.
He claimed that She entrusted to him classified encrypted materials, including that of Alice Guo, who he described as "a Chinese spy, but not a special one." In his recorded interview, which ran for almost 10 minutes, Wang was asked about his association with She and how long he has known him.
"I was his cellmate, we were good friends who trusted each other and lived in prison for one and a half years. After my release, he entrusted me to handle some of his declassified file matters," Wang, who noted that She gave him access to top-secret document, said.
"It should be accurate to say that he gave me access to some of the topsecret documents, and I am only one of the custodians of these documents.
Still, opening every one of them is only valid if it is authorized by Mr.
She's own decryption passphrase," Wang added.
Alice Guo was not a special spy even as her file was found in She's files, according to Wang.
Asked how he came to the conclusion that Alice Guo, also known as Guo Hua Ping, is a spy, Wang answered: "In fact, the content of the declassified file kept by Mr. She is large and I only have declassified a portion under his authorization.
