Statement of Senator Risa Hontiveros on Mayor Alice Guo not keen on attending the next Senate hearing
He should have thought about the consequences of his lying and cheating before he appeared in the Senate.
He was not the only one traumatized. The human trafficking victims - foreigners and Filipinos forced to work in POGO scam compounds - are traumatized. Even the Filipino people are traumatized with a Chinese national who became the Mayor of the Philippines.
Mental health is important but she cannot invoke it to escape accountability, especially since she is a public servant. She dug her own grave. We merely asked basic questions that any upright human being could answer. Now that he has no way out, he is making himself a victim.
If she does not honor the subpoena, the Senate is well within its rights to issue an arrest order. He just attended the hearing on Wednesday so there would be no more drama.
Mayor Alice Guo, the truth will give you peace of mind.
