Jim Paredes: A Powerful Influence In The Duterte Administration

IMG_2915MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Don’t be deceived by retired entertainer Jim Paredes’ anti-Duterte rants.  He’s actually a very powerful influence in the current administration.

Case in point:  In a recent tweet, Paredes asked that Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) Assistant Secretary Lorraine M. Badoy be fired while expressing his support for PAB (Pinoy Ako Blog).  Paredes accused Badoy of being a bully.

Well, the President heard Paredes loud and clear.

Today Badoy officially vacates her DSWD position.

Duterte just appointed her Undersecretary of the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO).

Moral of the story:  It pays to be a bully; and whatever Paredes wants, he gets.

 

Blogger Raissa Robles In L.A. Didn’t Expect A ‘Slay,’ Says ‘Never Again!’

951AEA8D-7DEE-458B-83F3-DE9E0F28C1D8LOS ANGELES, California (The  Adobo Chronicles, Los Angeles Bureau) – Remember Pinoy Ako Blog’s Jover Laurio and her Twitter message to Raissa Robles asking for help to ‘slay’ Sass Rogando Sasot, Thinking Pinoy and Maharlika?

Well, in L.A., Robles came face to face with a ‘slay.’

It was easy for Robles to imagine an auditorium at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) filled to capacity, with the audience very eager to hear her speak about her Marcos Martial Law book, ‘Never Again,’ and her thoughts about the current state of the Philippine government.

Instead, a sparse crowd estimated at about two dozen, sat in a small conference room to listen to Robles as she was challenged by blogger Maharlika and a young gentleman who came well-prepared with documents that caught the ‘guest speaker’ by surprise.

The facial expressions of Robles tell it all.  But don’t take our word for it.  You can watch a video clip HERE.

Contacted by The Adobo Chronicles after the event, Robles simply told us, ‘Never Again!’
