MANILA, Philippines — A Chinese national with a standing criminal conviction and active derogatory alert was denied entry and deported after arriving at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 3 on May 29.

The individual, identified as Shi Baoyi, 36, arrived via a Cebu Pacific flight from Hanoi, Vietnam. He was intercepted by authorities after his name matched an active Blacklist Order issued earlier this year.

According to official communication from Chinese authorities in April, Shi was convicted in 2022 in Henan Province for Undermining Credit Card Administration and sentenced to two years and six months in prison. He is also facing additional charges and is classified as a fugitive and undesirable alien.

Commissioner Joel Anthony Viado confirmed that Shi attempted to disrupt the exclusion process by slamming his head against the glass shield of a fire extinguisher case. Medical personnel responded immediately, and the process continued.

Shi was temporarily held while arrangements were made for his escorted return. On June 9, he was turned over to Chinese authorities and placed on a China Southern flight to Guangzhou. He has since been blacklisted from reentering the country.

“No act of resistance will deter us from enforcing the law,” said Viado. “We remain committed to the President’s call for strong and secure borders, and we will continue to prevent foreign fugitives from using the Philippines as a safe haven.”
