Court rules Alice Guo a Chinese national
Manila Bulletin
|June 30 2025
The Manila City regional trial court (RTC) has nullified the 2022 proclamation of Alice L. Guo as mayor of Bamban, Tarlac for being a Chinese national.
"Alice Leal Guo is nothing more but a usurper of the Office of the Mayor of Bamban, Tarlac. It follows, therefore, that her proclamation was deemed void," the RTC ruled in a decision handed down by Judge Liwliwa Hidalgo-Bucu of Branch 34.
In 2024, the Office of the Ombudsman (OMB) ordered the dismissal of Guo as mayor for grave misconduct on complaints filed by the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG).
Thereafter, the Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) filed a quo warranto case against Guo before the Manila RTC and challenged her authority and qualification to discharge the functions of Bamban town mayor.
The OSG told the court that Guo Hua Ping arrived in the Philippines on July 12, 1999 with her Chinese parents, Guo Juan Zhong and Lin Wenyi.
