Mocha Uson Receives International People’s Choice Award!

EF232540-FCED-496C-B764-1854098D88CF.jpegMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – ‘Tis the season for awards. Incarcerated Senator Leila De Lima has received yet another award from Amnesty International, while Rappler’s Maria Ressa has been given a journalism award by the Knight Foundation.

Not be be left behind, PCOO Assistant Secretry Mocha Uson has just received the International  ‘People’s Choice Award’ for the blogger with the most number of followers and engagements. Uson has about 5 Million followers as compared to Rappler’s 2 Million (and declining.)

Uson’s recognition is a testament to the power of the people, and to the fact that what matters most is not corporate  or political influence, but whom the Filipinos trust and believe in.

And it’s looking like Filipinos trust and believe in Uson, rather than Ressa and De Lima.

Congrtatulations to Mocha!

 

 

Each Senator Will Occupy 3 Floors In The Proposed New Senate Building

25C49BF6-945C-4C5D-A4DF-9092FD936AFAMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Construction of a new, P10-Billion Philippine Senate Building is expected to begin next year, to be completed by 2021.

The new Senate headquarters, to be built on a two-hectare lot to be sold by the Bases Conversion Development Authority in Bonifacio Global City, will reportedly comprise of four state-of-the-art glass-walled buildings, each 18 stories high, with a park in the center.

So let’s do the math.

There are 24 Senators.

If each building has 18 floors, that means the total for the four is 72 floors.

72 divided by 25 equals 3.

3 floors for each Senator!

And who’s paying for all this?  YOU!
