MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – After Vice President Leni Robredo publicly supported the declaration of Martial Law in Mindanao, she seems to have earned back the trust and confidence of President Rodrigo Duterte.
Robredo is back in the Cabinet as the new Mendicant-in-Chief. As the “donation czar,” the VP’s main responsibility is to solicit donations for and on behalf of the government and the Filipino people.
In a statement released by Malacañang, Duterte said he was very impressed with Robredo’s recent calls for donations for all sorts of causes — from relief for natural calamity victims to help for those caught in the crossfire between government troops and the terrorist group Maute in Marawi City. “She even has a call for donations for a defense fund to help with the electoral protest filed against her by former Senator Bongbong Marcos. She is clearly the most qualified person for the job,” Duterte said.
TOKYO, Japan (The Adobo Chronicles, Tokyo Bureau) – Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has cancelled a planned visit to Japan next month to focus on the situation in Marawi City where the terrorist group Maute has launched a siege, prompting the proclamation of Martial Law in Mindanao.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe perfectly understands Duterte’s change of plans and has, in fact, pledged to donate sophisticated military equipment to the Philippines to help crush the rebel terrorists.
The donated equipment consists of two giant robots capable of decimating the terrorists.
The remote-controlled robots are said to be three times more effective that the used and dilapidated tanks and helicopters previously donated to the Philippines by the United States.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – It is the first survey ever conducted since President Rodrigo Duterte declared Martial Law in Mindanao. It is also the first survey that included 100 Million respondents — that’s almost the entire population of the Philippines.
The single-question survey asked if respondents supported or opposed the Martial Law proclamation.
The results, with a plus or minus 3% margin of error, showed that 16 out of 100 Million Filipinos oppose Martial Law in Mindanao. Not 16 million. Sixteen Filipinos.
The 16 self-identified non-supporters of the Mindanao declaration are pictured above.
One other survey respondent opposed Duterte’s declaration, but her response was invalidated because she’s a psychopath:
