Even A Snake Would Turn Away From Bb. Maharlika!

Leave a comment

LOS ANGELES, California. (The Adobo Chronicles, Los Angeles Bureau) – She’d do anything to gain more viewers and engagement which have been going down, down, down since she started attacking President Bongbong Marcos and First Lady Liza Araneta Marcos.

Bb. Maharlika the trying-hard vlogger who claims she helped elect Marcos in the 2022 presidential elections, wrapped her neck with a giant snake during one of hers recent vlogs.

Alas, even the snake turned its face away from Maharlika, scared of her face and her oversized glassses, not to mention her foul mouth.

Reports have it that even her minuscule number of viewers squirmed in their chairs upon seeing the Medusa copycat.

What will Maharlika do next? Hold a tiger in her lap?

The Race For Philippines’ Agriculture Secretary

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Now that President Bongbong Marcos has finally appointed vacant Cabinet posts like Health and National Defense Secretaries, it’s time to focus on his replacement as head of the Agriculture Secretary. (Marcos has appointed himself as Acting Agriculture Secretary).

The race for the position is getting hotter, with two opposition figures eying the juicy and fertile title, namely former presidential candidate Mar Roxas and former VP candidate Kiko Pangilinan.

Senator Cynthia Villar has also chimed in by suggesting that the next Agriculture Secretary must have his or her heart with the small farmers. She cautioned the potential appointees not to be like her because her heart is with traders like her. (It will be recalled that Villar championed the cause of private rice importation to the detriment of local rice production).

In the end, whoever is appointed Agriculture Secretary must be able to fulfill Marcos’ promise of P20-P25/kilo rice.
