MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Not only is it international beauty pageant season, but it’s also that time for the handing out of international awards in government and politics.

Only yesterday, incarcerated Senator Leila de Lima was awarded the highest human rights award from Liberal International.

Today, Nacionalista International named Senator Antonio Trillanes as the recipient of its own, highest human rights award for his unwavering efforts to convince the International Criminal Court to charge  President Rodrigo Duterte for  ‘crimes against humanity.’

Trillanes was  in the United States recently where he met with Florida Senator Marco Rubio and participated in small talk criticizing the Duterte administration.

Is there a PDP-Laban International?
