PETER LA. JULIAN
At a crossing near the Cultural Center of the Philippines building in Manila, a frail elderly man approaches our car, and stretched his hand for alms. He was holding a child with a 100-peso bill clasped tightly on her hands.
A family of five takes a bath at the murky and smelly waters of Manila Bay near Roxas boulevard.
A man takes a dip in the waters, and lingers for some minutes. He takes off his tattered shirt, washes it, twists the water off the cloth, then puts it on his thin body as he comes out of the bay toward land.
