QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – President Bongbong Marcos will deliver the second State of the Nation (SONA) of his term on July 24, 2023.
His address would certainly be among breaking news next week.
But GMA 7, now considered the most trusted news brand in the Philippines, has a different idea of breaking news. It has uncovered a fact never before known by Filipinos: There is a helipad at the Batasang Pambansa, the venue of Marcos’ SONA.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Self-proclaimed investigative writer and failed book author Raissa Robles has reached the end of the line. She is changing career.
Robles debuted as a seismologist with her latest tweet on earthquakes.
A graduate of a degree focusing on imaginative writing, Robles fuses science and imagination to come up with hard-hitting, Pulitzer Prize-worthy articles.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Singapore has replaced Japan for having the world’s most powerful passport, allowing visa-free entry to 192 global destinations, according to the latest Henley Passport Index.
The Philippine passport now ranks No. 74, with 66 visa-free destinations. (Surprisingly, the country’s most “revered ally,” the United States, is not among the visa-free destinations.)
Still that is a long ways until the Philippine passport achieves platinum or gold status. Hence, it is still considered among the world’s most power-hungry passports.
Other world rankings show the Philippines anywhere from 66th to 126 the place.
