MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – After admitting that it was all a misunderstanding, the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) is renaming all bicycle lanes along EDSA and other thoroughfares to “unmotorized bicycle lanes.”
The announcement came after MMDA complained that the bicycle lanes are mostly being used by motorcycle riders.
But after MMDA technocrats were told that in most countries, motorcycles are also called motorbikes, they recommended the name change to make clear that the special lanes are for the exclusive use of people who ride manually-pedaled bikes.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) -Just hours after the Ombudsman released its decision to dismiss from service the Chief and the Assistant General Manager of the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) for abuse of authority and misconduct, Malacañang released the shortlist of candidates to replace the MIAA chief. (MIAA oversees the management and operations of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, or NAIA which will be renamed Manila International Airport on Monday, August 21.)
The shortlist includes Rodrigo Duterte supporters and others who campaigned for Bongbong Marcos in the 2022 presidential elections in the hopes of getting appointed to a key and juicy position in the administration. Most, are vloggers.
-Claire Eden Contreras, a.k.a., Bb. Maharlika
-Sass Rogando Sasot
-Mark Lopez
-RJ Nieto, a.k.a. Thinking Pinoy (who declined because he is now studying in London)
-Glenn Chong
-Malou Tiquia of Publicus Asia
-Motivational Speaker Rendon Labador
-Fugitive former Comelec Chair Andy Bautista (if he gets the courage to return to the Philippines)
Marcos is expected to announce his final choice in his speech at the renaming of NAIA on Monday.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles,Manila Bureau) – There could not have been a perfect day to rename the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) back to Manila International Airport.
On Monday, August 21, President Bongbong Marcos will lead in ceremonies for the unveiling of the new airport face marquee bearing the easy-to-remember, easy-to-pronounce original name of the main international gateway to the Philippines.
August 21 happens to be Ninoy Aquino Day, a non-working holiday in the country.
Malacañang said that the timing is most appropriate as it will give the chance for the Aquino family and their supporters to say their last hurrah!
Soon, international flight attendants will be heard announcing: “Ladies and gentlemen, we have just landed at Manila International Airport…”
