MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Sometimes, it helps to air your dirty laundry in public, especially if it’s about marriage woes, spas and ghost writers.

Case in point: Singers Jason Hernandez and Moira dela Torre have been trending on social media because of back and forth accusations about who is in the wrong and who is in the right (with people around them and netizens joining in the fray) in their relationship.

Now, the (former) husband and wife are tied in the No. 1 spot in national Philippine music charts. Their respective singles – ‘Ikaw Parin’ (Jason) and “Eme’ (Moira) have catapulted to the top most listened to Pilipino music of all time.

After all, there is hope for all struggling artists out there. You just need to dirty your laundry and air it in public!

Raissa Robles Adds Apples To Oranges

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Being a failed book author and a self-proclaimed investigative writer does not make one a math expert, especially if your college course focused on imaginative writing.

Case in point: Raissa Robles.

Commenting on a recent poll showing 29% of Filipinos who said their quality of life improved in the last year compared to 25% who said it got worse, Robles drew her mathematical equation resulting in 71% not seeing any improvement. She, of course added the 46% who said their quality of life remained the same.

Robles must have been absent from class when the professor talked about not comparing apples with oranges, because adding 3 apples and 2 oranges does not result in 5 apples.

Get that, Ms. Robles?

TUL-4: A New Philippine Political Dynasty Rises!

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – For decades, Philippine lawmakers have tried, but failed, to come up with an anti-political dynasty law.

As a result, more and more families are cementing their hold on politics.

TUL-4 is the latest dynasty to emerge, with the swearing in of ex-DSDWD Secretary Erwin Tulfo as House (Partylist) Representative.

Erwin becomes the fourth Tulfo in the legislative branch: brother Raffy is senator, sister-in-law Jocelyn (wife of Raffy) is ACT-CIS representative, and nephew Ralph is a lawmaker representing Quezon City’s 2nd District.

Four Tulfos equals TUL-4!

Tulfo entered the House as a substitute nominee of party-list group ACT-CIS, replacing original third nominee Jeffrey Soriano who  resigned from the chamber last February.
