Protest ongoing at University of the Philippines Shopping Centre in Manila, Philippines, the morning of Nov. 18. Increased security likely.
Dozens of activists are protesting outside University of the Philippines (UP) Shopping Center in Manila as of the morning of Nov. 18. The purpose of the action is to denounce the opening of a new commercial establishment.
Police have deployed additional personnel to monitor the action. Localized transport disruptions could occur if activists march along or occupy nearby streets. Isolated scuffles between security forces and demonstrators are possible if the latter is overly disruptive.
Avoid the protest site as a precaution. Allow additional time for travel to nearby destinations; use alternative routes to circumvent the rally site. Remain cooperative if stopped by officials for security checks. Heed all local security and traffic advisories.
