Makati Stand-off

We're having lunch at Mann Hann in SM Megamall as a despedida treat for one of our officemates when several SMS and calls were received by us informing us of the coup being staged in Makati. A group led by Senator Trillanes walked out of his hearing at Makati's RTC and proceeded to The Peninsula Manila. They then took over the hotel, airing their sentiment through the media.

Thus, after lunch, tried to monitor what's going in between work. Good thing, the operation of the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) did not stop because of what is happening.


Alighted from MRT's Ayala Station. That's when I learned that SM Makati is already closed. Even Glorietta's (although a few restaurants were open) shops are closed; which eerily reminds me of the Glorietta 2 bombing. But unlike it, the gloomy feeling is lacking. It was simply quiet and dark.
