“While the Commission on Elections is constrained to accept Guo Hua Ping’s Certificate of Candidacy as part of their ministerial duty, we note that there is a pending material misrepresentation case against her when she ran for mayor in 2022, along with several cases filed by other agencies pertaining to her true identity. It would be ridiculous if she would still be allowed to run again,” said Villanueva.

According to Villanueva, it can no longer be denied that Guo Hua Ping is a fake Filipino.

He said what Guo has done is a “violation and blasphemy” of Philippine laws.
