MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – A poll on potential candidates for the 2028 Philippine presidential elections shows that former Senator and defeated 2022 Vice Presidential candidate Kiko Pangilinan leads Vice President Sara Duterte by a margin of 3 to 1!
Pangilinan garnered 72% versus Duterte’s 24%.
The question asked in the poll was “Which potential 2028 presidential candidate will experience the same fate as Leni Robredo?”
The people have spoken!
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – No one wears the Filipino terno like the First Lady. No, not the incumbent First Lady, but former First Lady Imelda Romualdez Marcos.
During her time as First Lady, the 94-year-old Marcos popularized the terno worldwide, eliciting “oohs and aahs” whenever she visits foreign countries.
Now, she has broken her silence on what seems to the bastardization of the Filipino terno. The traditional dress and representation of the Philippines has been dealt with all sorts of iteration: above-the-knee, single butterfly sleeve, repulsive colors, plunging necklines and even paired with maong jeans!
Marcos wants the terno to be included in Republic Act No. 8491 which prescribes the code of the national flag, anthem, motto, coat-of-arms and other heraldic items of devices of the Philippines.
“The terno is a Filipino symbol of the true, the good and the beautiful,” she told The Adobo Chronicles, “and we must treat it with love and respect.”
And we agree!
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – President Bongbong Marcos has ordered a re-mapping of the Philippines as he lamented the fact that the waters lining the islands have disappeared due to reclamation projects.
Traditionally, the Philippines is known to be an archipelago of 7,107 islands covering 300,000 square kilometers (30 million hectares) — 298,170 square kilometers of land and 1,830 square kilometers of water.
Marcos said the Philippine landscape may have significantly changed and that land has increased while water has decreased.
In the interest of truth and transparency and in order to accurately protect the country’s sovereignty, the President ordered the re-mapping of the Philippines to reflect the rise of land and the fall of water.
