But the national daily’s owners felt that there was something missing. They finally found it: a more accurate, descriptive name for its kind of politics and newspapering.

So today, the paper announced it was changing its name to The Manilaw Times.

The Yellows are celebrating this milestone — a newspaper they can truly call their own!

One Million Protest March Awaits Donald Trump’s Manila Visit

IMG_5544.PNGMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – In what is being described as “miraculously unprecedented,” supporters and critics alike of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte will hold a joint protest march at the Luneta during the Manila visit of Donald Trump.

The U.S. President is scheduled to be in the Philippines this November to attend the summit meeting of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Leaders of “Tindig Pilipinas,” an anti-Duterte movement and their Duterte counterparts secretly met at Club Filipino in Makati last night to finalize plans for the Million March.

Leading the protest march will be Senators Antonio Trillanes, Risa Hontiveros and Bam Aquino; Jim Paredes, Raissa Robles, Maria Ressa, Mocha Uson, Thinking Pinoy, Sass Rogando Sasot, and Imee Marcos who will lock hands throughout the rally.

President Duterte has given the go signal to provide incarcerated Senator Leila De Lima a one-day pass so she could participate in the march.

Is this the beginning of a United Philippines?

We have Trump to thank.
