MANILA — The Department of Health-Metro Manila Center for Health Development (DOH-MMCHD) on Tuesday launched a campaign to make Manila Bay smoke-free. The campaign was launched at the Manila Baywalk Dolomite Beach in celebration of Lung Cancer Awareness Month, with the goal of championing and advocating for a breathable environment where the public can enjoy and spend leisure time in smoke-free zones.

Ikinagulat ng ilang mga residente ang biglang pagguho ng bahagi ng sidewalk sa may Medina Street, Barangay Pio del Pilar sa Makati Linggo ng gabi. Makikita sa CCTV footage na pasado alas onse kagabi, unti-unting bumigay ang bahagi ng bangketa at yellow grills, at bumagsak sa katabi nitong creek. Mapapansin din ang isang aso na napasama sa pagguho nito.

The Manila South Cemetery reopened to the public on Monday, October 31, two days after being closed due to severe tropical storm Paeng. Manila South Cemetery director Jonathan Garzon said he is expecting a large number of people to arrive to visit their dead loved ones after the 2-day closure. To avoid congestion, the sections of P. Ocampo and of South Avenue leading to Manila South Cemetery are closed to vehicular traffic.
