QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – Vice President Leni Robredo, newly-arrived from a well-deserved junket in New York, has quickly responded to a letter from VP-elect Inday Sara Duterte requesting a meeting for a smooth transition to the new administration.

Congratulating Duterte — for the first time since the May 9 elections — for being officially proclaimed duly-elected Vice President, she told the outgoing Davao City Mayor, ”huwag nang transition, merienda na lang!” (No more transition, just snacks.)

Robredo repeated those famous lines she used when she tried to avoid questions from reporters at her headquarters in Quezon city.
