/”Filipino po ako,/” Alice Guo insisted anew during what Rep. Bienvenido Abante described as /”kuwentuhan/” over hopia, the Chinese-associated pastry which was served as snack at the House quad-committee hearing on Thursday (September 19).

Abante, a co-chairperson of the joint panel, offered Guo a piece of hopia as he started his interpellation, but the embattled former mayor declined.

/”Chinese ka, hindi ka kumakain ng hopia?/” the congressman quipped. /”Bakit ako Filipino, kumakain ako ng hopia?/”

Guo answered, /”Ako po siguro ‘yung Filipino… hindi po ako kumakain ng hopia./”

Earlier in the hearing, she was also grilled about her citizenship by Batangas 2nd district Rep. Jinky Luistro, who presented old photos of Guo including her alleged Chinese passport.

/”These documents are evidence to show that indeed the nationality of Ms. Guo is Chinese,/” Luistro said.

Guo, however, opted to keep mum on the documents and invoked her right against-self incrimination, citing the criminal cases filed against her.
