ONE NAVY SHIP DONATED BY AUSTRALIA TO THE PHILIPPINES IS MISSING!

CaptureZAMBOANGA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – One of the naval ships donated by the Australian government to the Philippines has been reported missing.

The Philippine Star is reporting that two Australian naval ships  have reached the country’s territorial waters.

The two landing craft heavy (LCH) ships are now sailing the waters of Zamboanga  and are expected to reach Sangley Point in Cavite on Friday, according to Navy chief Vice Adm. Jesus Millan.

Australia announced its plan to donate the LCH transport ships to the Philippines last January. The ships were transferred to the Philippine Navy after being refurbished with new safety and navigation equipment.

The vessels were decommissioned from Australian service at a ceremony in Cairns on November 19, 2014. They were commissioned by the Philippine Navy on July 23, 2015.

However, the Philippine Star report showed a photo of three, not two, naval ships.  So there is speculation that the third ship may have been lost at sea or diverted to another country.

The Philippine Navy has not returned our calls for comment.

 

CNN CONFIRMS: CECIL’S BROTHER JERICHO IS ALSO A LION

imageATLANTA, Georgia (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Amid conflicting reports that Zimbabwean lion Cecil’s brother was either killed or is still alive, CNN has confirmed that Jericho was indeed killed.

In a news flash aired on Don Lemon’s show tonight, CNN announced that Jericho, Cecil’s brother, “who is also a lion,” was killed in yet another unfortunate hunting incident.

The Adobo Chronicles® appreciates CNN for confirming the news about Jericho’s mortal life, and that he was indeed a lion just like his brother Cecil.

BAGUIO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – From New York City to St Louis, Missouri; from China to the Philippines, people are paying tribute to Cecil, the Zimbabwean lion killed by an American dentist last week.

The killing has elicited an international outrage and many have called for the banning of hunting as a sport. Others are drawing attention to the issue by putting up amzing tributes to Cecil.

In New York City, the Empire State Building lit up the night sky with a giant image of Cecil projected onto the facade of the landmark building.

In China, a giant billboard with Cecil’s photograph was set up on a hill along the Great Wall.

In Baguio City, Philippines, volunteers carved Cecil’s image from a huge rock located along the winding road leading up to the country’s summer capital.

But in St Louis, Missouri,  city officials were not content with just hanging a banner bearing a photo of Cecil on the Arch. They included the photo of the killer dentist, Dr. Walter Palmer alongside Cecil’s.

Other world sites in Paris, Egypt, Germany, London and Australia are also contemplating putting up their own tributes to Cecil.

We now know who is king — the Lion King.
