Elections 2025: From Pinklawan to Azulan!

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – 2025 is not that far away. Soon, Filipinos will be voting for a new batch of senators, and the supporters of Leni Robredo and lone opposition senator Risa Hontiveros are girding their loins!

Realizing that the Dilawan and Pinklawan (Yellows and Pinks) didn’t get them anywhere during the 2022 presidential elections, leaders of the opposition are changing strategy.

Robredo and Hontiveros are teaming up to put up what they say would be the strongest coalition ever to go against the Marcoses. And they are changing colors too.

Henceforth, the Dilawan and Pinklawan will be known as Azulan — for their new color of blue!

Ninoy Aquino Day: Reenactment Of Assassination Cancelled!

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – It would have been a very impactful commemoration on Monday, August 21 at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport.

To mark the anniversary of the “martyrdom” of the late senator, the Dilawan National Coalition (DNC) had planned on a reenactment of the assassination at the airport tarmac.

Everything was set since a week ago, but the reenactment had to be cancelled at the last minute.

DNC could not find a volunteer to play the role Ninoy.

Perhaps they did not make it clear that rubber bullets will be used?
