MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – We all know too well that politicians promise the universe and even heaven if elected to the elective positions they are seeking.

Vice President and presidential aspirant Leni Robredo is no exception.

But her promise is like no other. If elected on May 9, she said she would push for the Philippines to become a Monarchy. After all, she says, Filipinos love beauty queens.

To demonstrate that she was serious with her promise, she took to the stage in her latest concert rally, wearing a replica of the Miss Universe crown to the delight of her fanatics.

Too bad, two previous Filipina Miss Universes, Pia Wurtzbach and Catriona Gray, who endorsed her candidacy, were not present at the rally to give her moral support for her aspiration to become Queen of the Philippine Monarchy.
