The Philippine House of Representatives has recommended charges of illegal drug trading against two Chinese businessmen linked to a warehouse in Mexico, Pampanga where P3.6 billion worth of shabu was found hidden in tea bags in September 2023. The committee cited Cai Qimeng (Willie Ong) and Yang Jiazheng, along with all incorporators of Empire 999, in its recommendation. Both Aedy Tai Yang and Willie Ong are known for their involvement in Filipino-Chinese community activities, including charitable work.

“The QuadCom recommends the filing of appropriate charges against…personalities linked to the illegal drug trade, particularly those implicated in the seizure of 360 kilograms of shabu in Mexico, Pampanga – Cai Qimeng a.k.a. Willie Ong, Yang Jiazhengand all the incorporators of Empire 999,” said quad committee chairperson Ace Barbers in a plenary speech on Wednesday. The House as a whole adopted the report minutes later.
Empire 999 was incorporated in 2015 by Ong, Yang, and three others as a leasing company based out of Binondo, according to its incorporation papers. Since it was identified as the owner of the warehouse, the Securities and Exchange Commission revoked the company’s registration and disqualified the five incorporators from being director of any company for five years.
Another company with a link to Michael Yang is Golden Sun 999 Realty and Development Corporation, whose 2023 officers include Aedy Yang, Jason Uson, and Rose Nono Lin. Uson and Lin are Michael Yang’s co-directors in“Madami at paulit-ulit na ang koneksiyon na lumilitaw si Michael Yang sa business ng droga, pero nakapagtataka rin na sa gitna ng state policy na war on drugs, where thousands were killed kahit sabi-sabi lang ang basis, wala pa rin nakakagalaw kay Michael Yang.
