Baker Makes Promise On Facebook And Deletes It But His Followers Saved It

A baker who vowed to give away thousands of free cakes if Rodrigo Duterte won the Philippines presidential election says he'll keep his promise - but it will take a while. .

BBC reports that Pastry chef Eliaquim Labang wrote on Facebook in November that if Mr Duterte was successful - having repeatedly said he wouldn't run - then his bakery would hand out 5 million pesos-worth of cake ($107,000; £74,000), the Manila Bulletin website reports.

While his post was later removed, some forward-thinking netizens had saved a copy, just in case.
