MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Vice President Leni Robredo is very busy these days.

When she is not blabbering about rebuilding Marawi City or criticizing Chinese-funded infrastructure projects like the Bicol Express, Robredo is launching projects aimed at improving the health of Filipino children.

Well, it’s that time of year when kids go trick or treating, making the rounds of their neighborhoods collecting chocolates and candies to fill their Halloween buckets.

Today, the Office of the Vice President (OVP) announced that it was launching Leni’s Halugaween Project.  It encourages adults to dispense of the usual chocolate and candy treats and instead go for packets of lugaw.

”This will ensure that our Filipino kids are well nourished especially during the holiday season,” Robredo told The Adobo Chronicles.

Lugaw, anyone?
