Ninoy Aquino Day: Reenactment Of Assassination Cancelled!

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – It would have been a very impactful commemoration on Monday, August 21 at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport.

To mark the anniversary of the “martyrdom” of the late senator, the Dilawan National Coalition (DNC) had planned on a reenactment of the assassination at the airport tarmac.

Everything was set since a week ago, but the reenactment had to be cancelled at the last minute.

DNC could not find a volunteer to play the role Ninoy.

Perhaps they did not make it clear that rubber bullets will be used?

Jollibee, McDonald’s Woo Food Technologist Flunkers!

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Arch rivals McDonald’s and Jollibee are constantly competing to become No. 1 in the Philippines.

Even in employee recruitment, the fast food chains are trying to outdo each other to gain plus points from Filipino customers.

Today, the red-haired clown and the fat, stupid happy bee have announced that they will give priority employment to those who flunked the most recent professional food technologists licensure exams.

The Professional Regulation Commission announced that only 453 out of 1,133 examinees — or about 40% — passed the exams.

While McDonald’s is requiring a college transcript for applicants, Jollibee just needs a photo copy of the applicant’s PRC failure notice.
