Overstaying Chinese National Arrested in Parañaque City over Involvement in Telecommunications Fraud

Overstaying Chinese National Arrested in Parañaque City over Involvement in Telecommunications Fraud

carlocarrasco

Recently in the city of Parañaque, elements of the Bureau of Immigration (BI) arrested a Chinese national who has been wanted for his alleged involvement in a telecommunications fraud syndicate and the Chinese Embassy sought his deportation, according to a news report of GMA News. The suspect has been overstaying in the Philippines since 2018 and had entered the country as a foreign tourist.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the GMA News report. Some parts in boldface…

The Bureau of Immigration (BI) has arrested a Chinese national wanted for his alleged involvement in a telecommunications fraud syndicate in Parañaque City.

In a press release issued on Monday, the BI identified the fugitive as 39-year-old Chen Yongzhou, who was arrested on October 14, 2026.

His arrest was initiated at the request of the Chinese Embassy in Manila, which sought his deportation.

According to the Embassy, Chen is subject to an active warrant for criminal detention issued by the Xinzhan Branch of the Public Security Bureau in Hefei, China.

Chinese authorities allege that Chen was involved in an overseas telecommunications fraud syndicate that operated from 2023 to 2024. The syndicate reportedly used voice phishing tactics to target victims in China, deceiving them into parting with their money through fraudulent investment schemes.

“They allegedly used a website called ‘WeChat’ to make random voice calls and build relationships with victims under the guise of romance,” BI Fugitive Search Unit Chief Rendel Ryan Sy said.

“They then persuaded victims to send gold to designated recharge points and invest in a fraudulent platform purportedly linked to the Shanghai Gold Exchange,” he added.

Sy noted that the group’s fraudulent operations allegedly defrauded victims of over 4.73 million renminbi, or roughly USD 706,000.

BI travel records show that Chen last entered the Philippines as a tourist in June 2018 and was already overstaying at the time of his apprehension.

The BI reported that the suspect remains detained at the Parañaque City Jail due to a pending murder charge before a local Regional Trial Court, a legal proceeding that will run independently of his deportation process.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you concerned that there could be a lot more illegal aliens or foreign criminals living in your local community? What do you think makes Parañaque so attractive to illegal immigrants/aliens and fugitives? What do you think about the groups of Chinese nationals living in your city?

Japan’s Narita International Airport Plans to Combine Three Terminals

Japan’s Narita International Airport Plans to Combine Three Terminals

carlocarrasco

Narita International Airport (NRT), the primary international gateway of Japan, could make flight connections and the travel experience better once its plan of combining the three terminals pushes through, according to a news report by VnExpress pointing to the Japanese media.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the report of VnExpress. Some parts in boldface…

The operator of Japan’s Narita International Airport seeks to make travel easier for passengers and improve the airport’s position as a regional hub, according to local media.

Since opening in 1978, Narita has added new terminals regularly over the years. But this makes it inconvenient for transfer passengers, who often have to take shuttle buses between the various terminals.

To solve this problem, the airport operator plans to merge the three terminals into one, making connections easier.

According to The Mainichi newspaper, the operator first presented the single-terminal concept in September 2022 at a meeting with the governor of Chiba Prefecture. More proposals were unveiled at a meeting in Tokyo on July 6, 2026.

They included closing the current Narita Airport train station at Terminal 1 and building a new one under the terminal to be built south of Terminal 2.

The plan also includes adding about 30 new parking spots with jet bridges, bringing the total to around 100. Customs and passenger processing will gradually move into this central structure.

The airport’s total floor area will increase from 970,000 square meters to about 1.1 million square meters.

The airport also plans to build a new 3,500-meter third runway and extend runway B by 1,000 meters to 3,500 meters by March 2029.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? If you have entered Japan through the Narita International Airport over the past twelve months, how was your personal travel experience? Do you think the BRT operator’s plan to combine Narita’s three terminals into one makes a lot of sense? Do you think the plan will somehow help Japan attract even more tourists from around the world while ensuring border security?

Japan Insists US Midterm Election Results Will Not Impact Alliance with America

Japan Insists US Midterm Election Results Will Not Impact Alliance with America

carlocarrasco

The 2026 United States midterm elections are over and it is unfortunate that the Democrats will take control of both the US House of Representatives and the US Senate this coming January. Also, those mobs of Islamists, socialists, LGBTQ and the other undesirable groups allied with the Democrats are still partying loudly. Japan, however, insists that the election results will not impact its strong alliance with America, according to a news report by Kyodo News. There is the focus on elevating the Japan-US alliance to new heights.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the report of Kyodo News. Some parts in boldface…

The U.S. midterm election results will not affect the strength of its security alliance with Japan at a time of increasing global uncertainty, the top Japanese government spokesman said Wednesday, emphasizing that the bilateral ties are essential to advance national interests and ensure global peace and stability.

“We will continue to work closely together at every level — including between leaders and foreign ministers — to elevate the Japan-U.S. alliance to new heights,” Chief Cabinet Secretary Minoru Kihara said after the Democratic Party retook control of both chambers of Congress in Tuesday’s elections in a blow to Republican President Donald Trump.

The bilateral alliance “remains the cornerstone of Japan’s foreign and security policy regardless of the outcome of the elections,” Kihara told a press conference.

With China’s military buildup and North Korea’s missile and nuclear programs in mind, the Japanese government has been seeking closer cooperation with the Trump administration to strengthen the alliance’s deterrence and response capabilities.

Since taking office in October last year, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has been seen building amicable ties with Trump by meeting him on multiple occasions, including at the White House, while concerns linger over his aggressive tariff policies and moves to thaw relations with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Tokyo has also faced Washington’s pressure to pay more defense costs, as Trump has called on allies to assume greater responsibility for their own security.

The Japanese government aims to arrange leader-level talks with the United States on the sidelines of an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum summit in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen later this month and a Group of 20 summit in Miami in December.

Facing greater constraints in advancing domestic agendas following the U.S. midterm elections, Trump could focus more on his diplomatic achievements, which could bring changes to policies on North Korea and the Middle East.

Given the unpredictability of the Trump administration, Japan should stick to the “orthodox approach” to working closely in the economic and security fields, a senior Foreign Ministry official said.

A diplomatic source expressed concerns over the negative impact of possible “turmoil” in the United States stemming from intensifying partisan confrontation, while a Foreign Ministry source said Trump may look to “build a diplomatic legacy” during the remaining two years of his presidency.

Trump has expressed interest in meeting North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, whom he calls “a friend of mine.” If such talks are realized, it could bring a chance to the Japanese government to seek progress in resolving the decades-old issue of Pyongyang’s abduction of Japanese nationals.

The Japanese government officially lists 17 people as abducted in the 1970s and 1980s by North Korea and suspects Pyongyang’s involvement in many other disappearances. North Korea, with which Japan has no diplomatic ties, maintains that the abductions issue has already been resolved.

Major U.S. concessions to North Korea in pursuit of summit talks, such as officially recognizing Pyongyang as a nuclear-armed state, however, could destabilize the security environment in East Asia.

“We need to be prepared for a wide range of situations,” a Japanese government official said.

U.S. economic policies will also be closely monitored, with the Japanese government cautious that it may face pressure toward a further Bank of Japan interest rate hike with the Trump administration critical of a weak yen that could lead to an expansion of the U.S. trade deficit.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you personally think the 2026 US midterm election results will have any serious effects on the current strong US-Japan alliance? What do you think President Trump and Prime Minister Takaichi should do with regards to stability in Asia, the economic challenge on China, the Japanese investment plans for America and other matters? Do you think today’s Democrats intend to manipulate the Japanese to accept more immigrants from Muslim-majority nations and to implement more woke concepts into their culture?

Portuguese Woman Apprehended in Thailand for Overstaying by 1,807 Days

Portuguese Woman Apprehended in Thailand for Overstaying by 1,807 Days

carlocarrasco

Recently in Thailand, a woman from Portugal was arrested after she overstayed in the country by more than one thousand and eight hundred days, according to a news article by VnExpress. The Portuguese’s permission to stay in the country expired on January 11, 2021.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news article of VnExpress. Some parts in boldface…

A Portuguese woman was arrested in Phuket, Thailand, after police discovered she had overstayed her visa by 1,807 days.

The arrest took place on Oct. 13 when immigration officers inspected a restaurant in Koh Kaew, Muang Phuket, as part of a campaign targeting foreign nationals accused of immigration offenses, according to Khaosod English.

When asked for identification, she could not produce her passport, showing officers only a photograph of it on her phone.

Officers then used Thailand’s immigration biometric system to confirm her details, revealing that she had entered Thailand through Suvarnabhumi Airport on March 20, 2020, under a 30-day visa-exemption scheme and later received an extension.

Her permission to stay had expired on Jan 11, 2021. The suspect has been charged with remaining in the country illegally.

Under Thai laws, she faces up to two years in prison, a fine of up to 20,000 baht (US$596), or both for remaining in the country without permission.

According to The Phuket News, an immigration spokesperson said authorities are stepping up checks to find and arrest foreigners staying illegally in the country.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you think there are still a lot of foreigners who overstayed in Thailand? What do you think is the main reason why foreigners overstayed there?

28 Foreign Nationals in California Charged for Registering to Vote Illegally in Elections

28 Foreign Nationals in California Charged for Registering to Vote Illegally in Elections

carlocarrasco

Almost thirty foreign nationals living in California were charged by the United States Department of Justice for registering to vote illegally in elections, according to a news report by Newsmax.

Under federal law, it is illegal for non-citizens – including the lawful permanent residents (green card holders) to vote for the US President, the US Senate or the US House of Representatives. All states require US citizenship (by birth or naturalization) to both register and vote in federal and state elections.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the news report of Newsmax. Some parts in boldface…

The Department of Justice announced Monday that it filed criminal charges against 28 foreign nationals living in California for allegedly registering to vote illegally or casting ballots in U.S. elections.

The arrests escalate a fight over voter rolls between California and the Trump administration, which sued the state last week after identifying more than 20,000 registered voters it believes are noncitizens.

At least 11 of the 28 defendants were arrested Monday morning, First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli of the Central District of California said at a news conference.

He said authorities expected to take the remaining 17 into custody “in the near future.”

The DOJ said in a news release that all 28 defendants, charged as part of Operation Protect the Vote, were lawful permanent residents, or green card holders, who have legal immigration status but are not U.S. citizens and are prohibited from voting in federal elections.

The charges include making false statements in naturalization applications and fraudulent voter registration, felony offenses carrying maximum prison sentences of five years.

Six defendants charged with voting illegally in the Eastern District of California face misdemeanor charges punishable by up to one year in prison.

The defendants arrested Monday were expected to make their initial appearances that afternoon in U.S. district courts, but no pleas were expected to be entered, the DOJ said.

Acting Deputy Attorney General Trent McCotter said the arrests demonstrated the need for California to address suspected noncitizens on its voter rolls.

He accused state officials of refusing to cooperate with federal efforts to verify voters’ citizenship and prevent illegal ballots from being counted.

“This Department of Justice will not look the other way while noncitizens vote in federal elections,” McCotter said at the news conference.

“Each of the 28 defendants charged today appears on the list of more than 20,000 likely noncitizen registrants we provided to California election officials last week,” McCotter said in the release.

“California refused to look at that list,” he said.

“Today’s charges show exactly what that refusal puts at risk.

“California must verify the citizenship of those more than 20,000 registrants before mail-in ballots are counted,” McCotter said.

Descriptions of the defendants released by the DOJ indicate that at least 22 allegedly cast ballots in U.S. elections. McCotter said at least eight voted illegally more than once, including some in the 2026 primary.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Are you convinced that the officials of California are neglecting their duties on preventing voter fraud? Do you think California should be compelled to set aside the ballots from the more than 20,000 suspected non-citizens until their citizenship status get verified? Should the voter registration records of California be examined thoroughly to find and get rid of all the fraudulent people listed?

Illegal Alien from the Philippines Arrested by ICE for Secretly Filming Undressed People

Illegal Alien from the Philippines Arrested by ICE for Secretly Filming Undressed People

carlocarrasco

In a press release by Homeland Security, it was announced that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested more of the worst-of-the-worst illegal aliens whose acts were very despicable and disturbing. What caught my attention is the arrest of a Filipino illegal alien over the crime of videotaping undressed persons without consent and already he is in the news.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the news report of the Manila Standard. Some parts in boldface…

A 21-year-old Filipino national illegally residing in the United States was arrested by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after being convicted of two counts of videotaping undressed persons without consent.

In a press release, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said Joshua Gabriel Car Hombrebueno was taken into the custody of ICE, following his detention at the William G. Truesdale Alexandria Adult Detention Center in Alexandria, Virginia.

ICE listed Hombrebueno as part of its “Worst of the Worst” list on October 13, alongside four other convicted individuals from El Salvador, Mexico, and Guatemala.

“Yesterday, the brave men and women of ICE arrested pedophiles, sexual predators, domestic assailants, and other public safety threats from our communities,” DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said.

The department cited Hombrebueno as an “illegal” individual in the US.

A report from the official City of Alexandria, Virginia website states that the 21-year-old’s case goes back to Sept. 20, 2025, when a mother and her three-year-old daughter reported a phone’s camera recording inside the employee bathroom restroom.

“Upon investigation, Alexandria Police Department (APD) detectives recovered a recording depicting multiple victims, including both adults and children, who were unknowingly recorded while using the restroom,” the statement read.

According to the APD, a search of the device pursuant to a search warrant revealed several other victims, including children and adults.

After being identified, the victims expressed their willingness to file charges against Hombrebueno, who was then 20 years old and working at a French bakery.

Following a sex offense investigation involving hidden-camera recordings inside the restaurant’s employee restroom, the APD filed three felony counts and nine misdemeanor counts of unlawful creation of an image of another person.

“Hombrebueno, through legal counsel, turned himself in to Detective Quint earlier today, and the arrest warrant was served without incident,” the statement read.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you support ICE’s efforts on finding and arresting the worst-of-the-worst among the many illegal aliens/immigrants in the United States? Are there many illegal aliens/immigrants living in your local community right now? Do you think Hombrebueno is destined to be deported?

Japan Tightens Guidelines for Granting Permanent Residency, To Take Effect in April 2027

Japan Tightens Guidelines for Granting Permanent Residency, To Take Effect in April 2027

carlocarrasco

In its latest move on reforming immigration, Japan has officially revised its guidelines for granting permanent residency to foreign nationals and these will take effect in April 2027, according to a news report by Kyodo News. Guidelines include Japanese language-proficiency and having an above-average income compared with Japanese households.

To learn about the events that preceded the new residency fees, click here, here and here.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Kyodo News report. Some parts in boldface…

Japan’s immigration agency on Thursday revised its guidelines for granting permanent residency to foreign nationals, requiring applicants to have an income above the average for Japanese households and demonstrating a certain level of projected pension benefits.

The revised guidelines, which are set to take effect in April 2027, also require applicants to demonstrate Japanese-language proficiency at the level of an “independent user.”

The income requirement will be applied retroactively to applications made from April 2026 onward, as the immigration authorities aim to ensure that foreign applicants are financially independent. The average annual income per household was around 5.75 million yen ($36,500) in 2024.

The government of Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has been seeking to tighten regulations on the acceptance of foreign nationals. Fees for residence status applications were also hiked sharply on Thursday.

Applicants will also be required to have projected pension benefits equivalent to those payable after 30 years of enrollment in the employees’ pension program at their income level at the time they apply.

In principle, applicants must have lived in Japan for more than 10 years to qualify for permanent residency.

Previously, spouses of Japanese nationals or permanent residents could obtain permanent residency if they had been married for at least three years and had resided in Japan for at least one year.

However, the revised guidelines raise those thresholds to five years of marriage and three years of residence.

The Immigration Services Agency received around 5,000 public comments since it unveiled the draft guidelines in August.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Are you convinced that the Japanese government is executing the right moves with the revised guidelines? Do you think this latest immigration reform by Japan could inspire other nations to follow suit? What do you think could be the reasons why foreigners want to live permanently in Japan without following their rules, without paying their bills and without learning the Japanese language?

Higher Residency Fees for Foreign Nationals in Japan in Effect

Higher Residency Fees for Foreign Nationals in Japan in Effect

carlocarrasco

What Japan promised as a part of immigration reform has finally been executed yesterday. The fees for foreign nationals seeking a change or a renewal of their residency status in Japan has been hiked dramatically to 200,000 Yen (US$1,280), according to a news report by Kyodo News. In relation with this development, there were long lines of foreign nationals who applied at regional immigration service centers hoping to beat the scheduled hike of residency fees.

To learn about the events that preceded the new residency fees, click here, here and here.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Kyodo News report. Some parts in boldface…

Japan on Thursday hiked fees for foreign nationals seeking to change or renew their residency status, with the cost of permanent residency jumping twentyfold to 200,000 yen ($1,280).

The increase triggered a last-minute rush to apply under the old rates earlier this week, with long lines forming at immigration offices and heavy traffic making it difficult for some people to use the government’s online application system.

At the Osaka Regional Immigration Services Bureau on Tuesday, about 350 people were waiting when the office opened at 9 a.m., with the line stretching outside the building.

Before the hikes, the fees for non-permanent residency applications were 6,000 yen to change residency status or extending the period of stay. The fee for permanent residency was 10,000 yen.

From Thursday, the fee varies according to the period of stay granted, starting at 10,000 yen for three months or less and rising to 75,000 yen for five years or more.

The change comes following a revision to Japan’s immigration and refugee law enacted in May, with the government citing rising costs for visa screening.

For some foreign residents trying to continue working and living in Japan, including asylum seekers who fled hardship at home, the higher fees are adding to their financial burden.

A man in his 30s from East Africa, who came to Japan in 2023, said he is seeking refugee status for political reasons. He is currently unemployed after his seasonal job ended, adding that finding work has been difficult as many Japanese companies are reluctant to hire asylum seekers.

He currently holds a six-month “designated activities” residency status, meaning his renewal fee will rise to 18,000 yen under the new system.

“I like Japan,” he said, adding that he intends to pay the fees required to remain in the country. But he said policymakers should listen more closely to people directly affected by immigration rules.

An Indonesian man, 35, who went to the Osaka immigration office to apply for permanent residency before the increase took effect, said the twentyfold rise had come as a shock.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Now that higher residency fees are already in effect, do you anticipate a huge back backlash by foreign residents and their respective national governments against Japan? Do you think the woke mob and open borders zealots around the world will criticize Japan and pressure them to reverse all the immigration reforms they executed? Do you think the hiked fees will somehow compel illegal aliens and illegal immigrants to surrender to the local authorities and leave Japan?

Japan to Boost Cooperation to Crackdown Against Illegal Foreign Workers

Japan to Boost Cooperation to Crackdown Against Illegal Foreign Workers

carlocarrasco

Japan will intensify its crackdown against illegal foreign workers by boosting cooperation with the other divisions of the government very soon, according to a news report by Jiji Press. While the intention to solve the problems connected with illegal foreign workers is clear, the government of Japan still has varied obstacles that needs to be cleared in order to launch an effective crackdown.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the entire Jiji Press news report. Some parts in boldface…

Japan’s Immigration Services Agency will boost cooperation with other government divisions to crack down on illegal foreign workers.

Starting as early as October, agency officials will join land ministry inspections of demolition and construction sites.

The land ministry conducts regular patrols of demolition and construction sites. However, its construction-related officials do not have the authority to verify the identities of foreign nationals, even when they are suspected of working illegally.

To address this issue, the Immigration Services Agency will send immigration control officers to participate in these patrols, as these officers have the authority to ask foreign residents to show their residence cards, which they are required to carry under the immigration control and refugee recognition law.

The agency also plans to collaborate with the Environment Ministry, which oversees outdoor storage yards for waste plastics and scrap metal.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? If you have been living in Japan, did you notice any illegal acts committed by foreign residents over the past three months? Are you aware of the illegal mosque built in Japan by Pakistani nationals who defied the local authorities? Why do you think foreigners from Third World nations tend to behave negatively while living in Japan? Do you think Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae and her government can achieve comprehensive immigration reform within the next few years?

Immigrant from the Philippines Pleads Guilty to Illegally Voting in 2024 US Presidential Election

Immigrant from the Philippines Pleads Guilty to Illegally Voting in 2024 US Presidential Election

carlocarrasco

There definitely is such a thing as illegally voting in elections in the United States. Since Donald Trump returned as US President in 2025, the government has been unrelenting on pushing back against illegal immigration while restoring the integrity of American elections. That said, an immigrant from the Philippines pleaded guilty to voting illegally in the US Presidential election of 2024 and it happened just months after the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under failed US President Joe Biden approved her for the green card, according to a news report by Breitbart.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Breitbart news report. Some parts in boldface…

Last week, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that 37-year-old Evelyn Miller of the Philippines, who resided in Emmaus, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty to illegal voting.

On Monday, Breitbart News learned that Miller, who was approved for a green card by Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in July 2024, registered to vote on October 9, 2024, and illegally voted in the presidential election on November 5, 2024.

“This alien from the Philippines pleaded guilty to illegally voting in the 2024 election in Pennsylvania,” DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in a statement. “Thanks to the hard work of the men and women of HSI, as well as our partners at the Department of Justice, this alien will soon face justice for her efforts to subvert our elections. American elections are for Americans only.”

In the investigation, Miller confessed to Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents that she registered to vote online ahead of the election and voted in person on Election Day.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Does this case of illegal voting convince you that there should be more restrictions to prevent green card holders from voting in any election? What do you think is the ideal punishment for green card holders who actually voted? Are you convinced that Democrats would do anything to allow illegal voting in order to gain power?
