Statement Of VP Leni Robredo On Declining PH Inflation Rate

Leave a comment

 

Nakakabahala.

I am deeply concerned about the continued decline in the Philippines’ inflation rate.

I read on Facebook as well as on Rappler’s Twitter account that the country’s inflation rate for the month of June is down to 2.7%. That’s the lowest in the last 22-month period.

Nakakabahala.

I challenge the Duterte Administration to immediately institute all measures possible to reverse the declining trend for the greater good of the Filipino people.

Our economy should improve upwards, not downwards.

Nakakabahala talaga.

Manila Mayor Isko Moreno Vows To Clean Up Malacañang; First Stop: PCOO

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) Following a major cleanup drive in the country’s capital, the roads are now actually, well, roads again.  This, after Manila Mayor Isko Moreno and his team cracked down on  vendors that were obstructing Divisoria, Carriedo, and Bluementritt Streets.

Now, Moreno has vowed to take his cleanup drive to Malacañang which is physically IN Manila and therefore technically within the jurisdiction of the city government.

In an exclusive interview with The Adobo Chronicles, Moreno said it is his intention to rid Malacañang of “obstructionists and incompetents.” Just like the obstructionist vendors of Divisoria, Carriedo and Blumentritt.

His first stop: the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO).

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The Philippines’ inflation rate dropped to 2.7% in June, the lowest in the last 22 months, and Vice President Leni Robredo is very concerned.

”Nakakbahala,” (it’s concerning) Robredo said. “It’s proof that under the Duterte administration, everything is on the decline, whereas our country should be moving up,” she told The Adobo Chronicles.

She promised that under a Robredo presidency, this will never happen.
