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) – Filipinos’ trust in the United Nations (UN) and the European Union (EU) has dropped, based on the Social Weather Stations’ (SWS) latest survey.
The SWS said that of the 1,200 adults surveyed from March 25 to 28, 58 percent have “much trust” and 13 percent have little trust in the UN while 27 percent were undecided.
