MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – For several years now, ex-Vice President Leni Robredo has been dubbed the “Math Wizard” with her infamous mathematical computation of 4 x 40 = 1,600.
Well, move over, Leni.
A young kid has taken over the title after he solved a most difficult math question: what is infinity + infinity? He correctly answered: 16! What a genius!
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – It’s good. It’s bad. No it’s good. No it’s bad.
This sums up the latest pronouncement from the Philippine Statistics Authority on the country’s inflation rate.
Mathematicians may have their own magic potion to understand numbers, but the ordinary Filipinos don’t.
In a single post/graphic, PSA proudly announced that the country’s inflation rate for April this year improved to 6.6.% compared to last March’s 7.6%. But it proceeded to remind Filipinos that in April last year, the inflation rate was 4.9%. Then, it summarizes the post to say that the average inflation rate from January to April this year was 7.9%.
So, is PSA a PR arm, or a critic of government?
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Missosology is the leading beauty pageant website that covers and analyzes major international competitions including Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss Earth and Miss International.
Beauty enthusiasts follow the site for the most up-to-date pageant news, but vlogger Pinoy Ako Blog (Jover Laurio) is watching the site’s numbers. She hates beauty so she finds delight when the number of Missosology’s followers goes on a downward trend.
Perhaps she is hoping that those who unfollow Missosology will follow her instead? After all, beauty is but skin-deep.
