TO protect national security and curb foreign exploitation, the House Quad Committee has submitted crucial documents to the Solicitor General, urging immediate legal action against Chinese accused of illegally acquiring land and operating businesses in the Philippines using fraudulent Filipino citizenship.
The committee, composed of chairmen from the House Committees on Dangerous Drugs, on Public Order and Safety, on Human Rights, and on Public Accounts—Reps. Robert Ace Barbers, Dan Fernandez, Bienvenido Abante Jr., and Joseph Stephen Paduano—called on the SolGen to expedite its review and file civil forfeiture cases in coordination with various government agencies.
Further evidence includes certifications from the PSA on Yang’s marriage, tax declarations for properties in his name, and corporate records linked to him, such as those from Empire 999 Realty Corporation and Sunflare Industrial Supply Corp. These companies are tied to suspicious land acquisitions, with records from the Land Registration Authority revealing properties owned by Empire 999’s incorporators.
In a letter to Solicitor General Menardo Guevarra, the Quad Committee underscored the national security threats posed by these activities and called for swift action. The joint committee urged the OSG to work closely with agencies like the LRA, Securities and Exchange Commission , PSA, DAR, Bureau of Internal Revenue , and the Department of Justice to ensure a comprehensive investigation and legal action.
