Locsin

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Rodrigo Roa Duterte has not yet been in office for a full 100 days but already, the campaign for the 2022 Philippine presidential elections has  begun.

The leading candidate? Teddy Boy Locsin — journalist, former congressman and newly-appointed Philippine ambassador to the United Nations.

Locsin surely knows the winning formula to become president: be as foul-mouthed as Duterte. Or better.

Locsin first became controversial when he despised his own national language, Tagalog, as a useless language.  Everything went downhill (or is it uphill) from there.

In recent days, he has taken to his Twitter account to bitch, to curse, to threaten and to implore the Nazis. (Parental discretion advised.)

“If it worked for President Duterte, I’m sure it would, too, for me.  I found the perfect strategy to become the next president,” Locsin told The Adobo Chronicles.

A spokeswoman for Kardashian West said the reality TV star, who was in Paris attending fashion week shows, was badly shaken but physically unharmed. Police said she left Paris Monday morning.

Today, Kardashian revealed that all the jewelry taken from her, including a ring given to her by husband Kanye West, were all fake, just costume jewelry.

Kardashian definitely had the last laugh, but we can’t say the same thing for Kanye.

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Tough-talking, foul-mouthed  President Rodrigo Roa Duterte may be having second thoughts in appointing media personality Teddyboy Locsin as his country’s new ambassador to the United Nations.

The reason?  Locsin is even more foul-mouthed than Duterte, and that doesn’t sit well with the president.

“Dont you dare upstage me,” Duterte reportedly told Locsin.

Duterte’s admonition came after the news media published Locsin’s Twitter exchange with some of his critics in which he unleashed a number of expletives, worse and more direct than what have been attributed to the president.

Following are some of the exchanges Locsin had on his Twitter account. Parental discretion is advised:

If interested in the UN Ambassador position, you might want to start sending your resumés to Malacañang, just in case.
