DDB39966-0467-429C-84EC-9543D9E2E994QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – Philippine National Police Chief Oscard Albayalde today responded to a recent tweet by Edwin Lacierda, former spokesperson for ex-President Noynoy Aquino.

In a Twitter post, Lacierda questioned why Senator Leila De Lima must be accompanies by a throng of security police officers whenever she attends her court trial. He accused Albayalde of paranaoia.  The tweet was accompanied by a photo of De Lima’s recent arrival in court.

In his response, Albayalde said that he is not taking any chances, and that the Opposition and De Lima’s supporters have vast resources that could enable them to “rescue” the Senator from captivity.

The police chief said, “what if the Opposition decided to hire Superman to snatch De Lima from the custody of my officers?”

It’s better to be safe than sorry.

 

Adobo Chronicles Yellow Edition #3: Only 1 in 5 Of Police Officers Supports Duterte

67F114F0-6793-49D6-94D7-70FE01E9B4FF.jpegQUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Yellow Edition) – Pictures don’t lie, so they say. Except, of course, when they’re photoshopped. Now we know only one out of every five Philippine National Police (PNP) officers supports Duterte.

In an analysis of published photos, it has been proven that an overwhelming majority of police officers side the Opposition.

In this particular photo analyzed by our experts at The Adobo Chronicles, five police officers who were among the security escorts of Senator Leila De Lima during one of her court appearances, are seen flashing the five-finger sign, with only one flashing the Duterte fist sign. (The five-finger sign represents solidarity with De Lima whose surname translates into “five” in the Tagalog language).

Members of the Opposition and their Yellow minions have reason to celebrate for this finding!

 

 

What To Do If You Want To Kiss In Public In Baguio Ctiy

BAGUIO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Baguio Bureau) – Local officials in the summer capital of the Philippines are not content with banning cussing in public.  They want to  ban PDA – that’s public display of affection – in the city’s parks.

While the cussing prohibition is already law,  the PDA ban is still in the works, thanks to a new ordinance that was passed on first reading prohibiting kissing, petting, necking, and lying down together within the premises of the children’s park at Burnham .  It was authored by Councilor Joel Alangsab, who says his proposal is aimed at protecting children from seeing lewd acts at the park.

So, if the proposal becomes law, we advise Baguio residents and tourists alike that when they feel like engaging in PDA while visiting Burnham and other public parks, they should bring a blanket, shawl or umbrella to cover up their lewd acts.  That would make Baguio  city officials really happy.
