TOKYO, Japan (The Adobo Chronicles, Tokyo Bureau) – Facebook is dead serious about implementing its community standards. It just banned a Japanese gin advertisement to the dismay of many Ilocanos in the Philippines and abroad.

The banned product is Ukiyo.

FB community standards prohibit posts that promote violence, fake news, pornography and foul language, among others.

We can’t tell our followers and readers what the product name means, otherwise we, too, might be banned from Facebook.

Just ask an Ilocano near you!
