MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – Despite his growing unpopularity and increasing calls for his resignation, President NoyNoy Aquino says he is proud of his accomplishments in the last 4 years.

“Under my administration, we have put the Philippines on the world map,” Aquino said, “and not only that, our country has been rated No. 1 in many aspects — from the economy to politics, from infrastructure to transportation, from social welfare to the war on terror.”

Aquino cited a new survey which ranks the Philippines No. 1 in the top 25 cities in the world with the most number of homeless people.

“We even treat our homeless with respect and utmost care, like when we rounded up homeless children and families in Metro Manila and brought them to a resort during the recent visit of Pope Francis,” Aquino added. “Show me any other country that has done that for its homeless population.”
