MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – The two declared Philippine presidential candidates seem to be thinking very much alike. Well, almost.

Media reports recently revealed that Mar Roxas, President Aquino’s Interior and Local Government secretary, has established plans A, B, C and D in as far as picking his vice presidential running mate in the 2016 elections is concerned.

Roxas’ first choice is Senator Grace Poe who remains in the top spot in national polls to as the people’s preference for president. Second is Batangas Governor and former film actress Vilma Santos . Third is Leni Robredo, widow of the late Local Government secretary Jesse Robredo. And fourth is presidential sister and television host Kris Aquino.

Today, The Adobo Chronicles® learned through very reliable sources that Vice President Jejomar Binay has the exact same plan for choosing his VP runningmate except for one potential candidate.  Binay’s plan B consists of multi-awarded actress Nora Aunor lnstead of Vilma Santos.

Women’s groups are praising the candidates’ choices being that all are women.

However, it appears that after back and forth failed negotiations, both candidates are now left with no other option than to go with plan D.

The ball is now in the hands of Kris Aquino.

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Yesterday, we announced our choice for the best and worst-dressed at the State of the Nation Address (SONA) red carpet ceremonies held last Monday . We named Senator Nancy Binay the best-dressed and Senator Loren Legarda the worst.

Based on new information we just received, we have revised our choice for best-dressed.  The award now goes to Representative Leni Robredo, widow of the late  Interior and Local Governments Secretary Jesse Robredo.image

We arrived at our new choice after we found out that Robredo sneaked out of the red carpet and used the back stairway to get into the assembly hall. A photographer caught the great escape and the photo has now gone viral on social media.

We understand that the red carpet-shy Robredo has been doing this for three years in a row now, except that this hear, she was caught in the act.

We congratulate Robredo for this honor.
