After COPYRIGHT BATTLE WITH Filipino, Prince Harry PURSUES LEGAL ACTION AGAINST J.K. Rowling!

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – A small-business owner in the Philippines has found himself in a nasty copyright battle with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle over the name of his deodorant brand, “Archewell Harvatera.”

“Archewell” is the name of the duke and duchess’ charity foundation, a nod to their son, Archie. 

But it’s also in the name of the natural antiperspirant sold by manufacturer Victor Martin Soriano, who chose to call his product “Archewell Harvatera” last summer, a few months after Harry and Markle named their foundation in April.

But his Royalty is not stopping there.

Reliable sources told The Adobo Chronicles that Prince Charles’ youngest son is preparing a lawsuit demanding that author JK Rowling rename the main character in her “Harry Potter” series. “There can be no other Harry in the world except me, certainly not a character in a ridiculous fictional series,” the Prince said.

So, watch out, all ye people in the world named “Harry.” Or “Meghan.”

VP Robredo Off To U.S. In Search Of Western VAccines

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Philippines Vice President Leni Robredo is not one to shy away from any challenge, especially if the result will boost her standing as a potential successor to Rodrigo Duterte.

Robredo is always critical of the Duterte administration’s moves and policies, including those related to the country’s quest for Covid-19 vaccines which has been shaky at best.

Last night, Duterte challenged the VP to go procure vaccines for the Filipinos, saying “Kunin mo basket mo, mamalengke ka sa labas ng bakuna. Bigyan kita ng pera.” (Get your basket, go to the market to buy vaccines. I’ll give you money.)

So this morning, Robredo, with her Louis Vuitton handbag filled with pesos, took the first available flight out to the United States to do just that — buy vaccines from the West.

A spokesperson for the Office of the Vice President told The Adobo Chronicles that Robredo hopes to come back with millions of doses of the Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson vaccines. She also intends to make a side trip to the United Kingdom in the hope of procuring more doses of AstraZeneca.
