MANILA -- Manny Pacquiao is the top newsmaker in the Philippines for 2021, based on search results on Yahoo Philippines.
The online portal released its Year in Review on Wednesday, showing the most searched personalities and topics in the country.
On Pacquiao making it to the top spot, Yahoo said it could have been largely because of his retirement at the age of 42, and his decision to run as president of the Philippines.
Aside from being Yahoo's number one newsmaker for the year, Pacquiao is also the most searched athlete/sportsperson for 2021, followed by Olympic gold medalist Hidilyn Diaz.
