Fidel Ramos Explains Message On His Undershirt

9AA0DB57-B59E-4F4E-AF7A-8B7E7B2A2F1E.jpegMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – This is not the first time that ex-President Fidel Ramos has worn an undershirt over his regular shirt which carries the message, “Better Than The Others.”

The Adobo Chronicles finally caught up with Ramos today and we asked him what the significance is of the message on his undershirt.

”It simply means I’m a better President than Cory Aquino and NoyNoy Aquino combined,” he said.

Ramos’ statement didn’t sit well with NoyNoy. “I think at 90 years old, Ramos is already experiencing his second childhood,” he told The Adobo Chronicles.

Jim Paredes Mistakenly Deported

0DC58C4D-9375-4F76-AA5A-EFF2762DA910MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) –Subject to fact-checking by Rappler and Vera Files – Anti-Duterte retired entertainer Jim Paredes was deported back to Australia at dawn this morning.  But it was all in error.

The Bureau of Immigration (BI) arrested Paredes and put him on the first available flight from NAIA to Sydney.

Apparently, overly-eager BI employees mistook Paredes as the Australian who was reported to be engaged in anti-government activities in violation of the Philippine Constitution. Foreign citizens are expressly prohibited to engage in such activities while in the country. Paredes holds Australian citizenship.

The real Australian concerned in the report turned out to be a 71-year-old nun, Sister Patricia Fox.

As he was being escorted to his plane, Paredes kept on shouting, “Look at me, look at me. Do I look like a 71-year-old nun?”
