MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Several new polls have come out recently asking Filipino voters who they would vote for in the 2022 Presidential Elections. Most polls have Presidential Sara Duterte leading the potential field of candidates. Others point to Manny Pacquiao as the top favorite. One poll has Leni Robredo in the lead.
To settle this once and for all, The Adobo Chronicles is conducting its own poll of polls. Please vote below. According to your conscience, please.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – All 17 Metro Manila mayors have preempted President Rodrigo Duterte’s upcoming announcement on the community quarantine status of the NCR+ (National Capital Region and the provinces of Bulacan, Cavite, Rizal and Laguna) effective May 1. NCR+ has been under Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine or MECQ for the period ending April 30.
In a consensus decision, the mayors said they will put their respective jurisdictions under MCEQ Flakes which includes shortening the curfew hours to 10pm to 4am.
Residents of Metro Manila and nearby provinces praised the mayors’ decision, saying it truly reflects their being total flakes.
The Cambridge Dictionary defines “flake” as ‘a person you cannot trust to remember things or to do what they promise, or someone who behaves in a strange way.’
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – President Rodrigo Duterte today issued an Executive Order adding one more non-working national holiday.
Malacañang announced that April 23 each year will be observed to mark Community Pantry Day and National Lugaw Day. The date is the birthday of actress Angel Locsin and Vice President Leni Robredo.
The EO cited Locsin’s heroic (read: Darna) effort to (dis)organize a community pantry to celebrate her natal day, and Robredo’s (and her supporters) to mark the day to pay tribute to Leni’s personal and political trademark, lugaw (rice porridge).
In her weekly radio program, Robredo thanked Duterte and her supporters for this singular honor.
