The OVP contracted with The Adobo Chronicles to respond to speaking engagement and other invitations for Robredo.

We received our first inquiry from the National ICT Confedertion of the Philippines (NICP). ICT stands for Information and Communication Technology.

The group was following up on an earlier invitation for Robredo to be the guest of honor for its 10th Summit to be held in Naga City this November.

Well NICP, you can rest assured that your inquiry and follow-up will reach the OVP.  Robredo is a regular reader of The Adobo Chronicles.

Apple’s New iPhone Sells Out In The First Sixty Minutes!

1FB41D25-D27C-4DF8-9918-98672E6FDC85CUPERTINO, California (The Adobo Chronicles, San Jose Bureau) – It only took the first sixty minutes before Apple’s newest iPhone sold out.

A company spokesperson told The Adobo Chronicles that most of the sold units were ordered online, thanks to an aggressive email advertising campaign launched by Apple’s Marketing gurus.

But alas, it seems that many of the new iPhone customers were misled by a typo in the online ad.

Customers thought they were ordering the iPhone X-Rated, instead of the iPhone X-R.

If you are one of the customers who erroneously ordered what Apple is calling its most brilliant device so far, you are advised to contact Apple’s Cupertino headquarters as soon as possible.

C76BC564-CBFC-4F56-BB44-92EA683EA44EMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) –  The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced today that it has approved Facebook Philippines’ application for a change in its corporate logo.

The SEC announcement comes just a day after the social networking giant took down some 95 Facebook pages and 39 accounts that were identified as pro-Duterte, on the grounds that the pages violated its policies on SPAM as well as its authenticity policies..

Among the pages taken down were pages like Duterte Media, Duterte sa Pagbabago BUKAS, DDS, Duterte Phenomenon, and DU30 Trending News.

Earlier, Malacañang, through Spokesperson Salvador Panelo, said that the government had no problems  with Facebook pulling the pro-Duterte accounts and respects the independence of companies and their right to formulate their own corporate policies.

The new logo only applies to Facebook Philippines and involves just a change in color to reflect its political leanings and the influence exerted by the Yellows in the country in stifling free speech. The only other addition is an image of the Philippine flat on the logo’s upper left-hand corner.
