MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Kakie Pangilinan, daughter of actress Sharon Cuneta and defeated vice presidential candidate Kiko Pangilinan has accepted a challenge from professor extraordinaire Clarita Carlos.
Earlier, Pangilinan posted in her social media account that she is ”not going to have my president be named Marcos again,” in obvious reference to the landslide victory of Bongbong Marcos as the next Philippine leader.
Carlos challenged Pangilinan to write a 5,000-word essay defending her declaration.
Pangilinan accepted the challenge with a caveat: she says she can only write a maximum of 280 characters. On Twitter.
It wasn’t clear if that’s good enough for the professor.
QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – Move over, Mall of America. Here comes the Great Mall of the Philippines, bigger, better, more modern and more environment- friendly!
Hours after the U.P. Office of Student Regent urged Iskolar ng Bayan (government-paid scholars) to walk out of their classes because of the impending landslide presidential victory of Bongbong Marcos, the president-elect’s transition team immediately submitted a unique proposal: to convert the U.P. Diliman campus into the biggest mall in the world. It will be called The Great Mall of the Philippines.
The transition team made the recommendation, saying that empty classrooms and buildings at the country’s national university would be an unnecessary waste of space, resources and funds.
”Converting the entire campus into a mall would generate billions of pesos to help boost the Philippine economy, not to mention the huge government savings from the withdrawal of funds for free tuition afforded to U.P. students.
The transition team has sent out requests for proposals for the design to convert the sprawling campus to a one-of-a-kind shopping complex with lots of parking, lots of trees, and lots of customer patriotic spirit.
What a win-win project that the BBM administration is off to a great start with!
