MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Are you one of those annoyed by people speaking loudly on their smartphones in jeepneys, buses, restaurants and other public places? Stress no more!

Robin Padilla, topnotcher in the last Philippine senatorial elections has a smart solution.

The senator has filed a bill that would permanently ban smart phones by proposing a return of pagers and landlines!

Padilla said his proposed legislation would eliminate those annoying phone calls by rude people and bring about peace and tranquility in public places. “With pagers, people will have to wait till they get to a landline to make or respond to calls,” he told The Adobo Chroniclers.

At the same time, Padilla said the banning of smart phones would eliminate texting and Internet surfing in public.

Imagine an entire family or group of friends dining out in a restaurant without those smart phones. Person-to-person bonding is on its way back, thanks to Padilla!

Maria Ressa Reprimands Rappler Staff For News Report!

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – A furious Maria Ressa reprimanded her own staff at Rappler for publishing a news report regarding an SWS survey on their own online portal.

The survey showed that 89% of Filipinos were satisfied with how Democracy works in the Philippines. The survey runs counter to Ressa’s claims here and abroad that Philippine Democracy is threatened by government efforts to suppress Freedom of the Press, as well as what she describes as disinformation on social media.

In an hour-long staff meeting, the Rappler CEO castigated her staff for allowing to publish the report which puts her in an embarrassing situation with the folks at the Nobel Prize Committee as well as her blind supporters among the Western media.

Short of terminating her employees, Ressa warned that a repeat of the blunder will automatically mean pink slips for the staff.
