COULD HAVE BEEN A FACE-OFF

Members of activist group Gabriela mark the occasion of Women’s Month on Saturday with a protest rally in Manila calling for a wage increase for ordinary workers. Earlier on Friday, women officers of the Manila Police District mark their own celebration of Women’s Month with a drill on riot response, precisely the kind of police action intended for activists. —RICHARD A.

MOTORCADE FOR FIRE SAFETY

Manila firefighters hold a motorcade on Saturday to mark Fire Prevention Month this March, It was President Marcos’ father and namesake who issued Proclamation No. 115-A in 1966, designating this month as a time for raising public awareness of fire prevention.  —NIÑO JESUS ORBETA

CAMPAIGN FOR SENATE BETS, IMPEACHMENT

President Marcos on Friday leads a campaign rally for senatorial candidates of the Alyansa Para sa Bagong Pilipinas coalition at San Jose del Monte, Bulacan. Only ACT-CIS Rep. Erwin Tulfo , still the front-runner in the senatorial polls and reelectionist Sen. Imee Marcos skipped that sortie. Her brother again criticized his estranged allies the Dutertes. But critics of the President continue to bewail the apparent foot-dragging in the impeachment trial for Vie President Sara Duterte. A forum at Adamson University also on Friday became another occasion for constitutional experts to cite the legal imperative for proceeding with that trial. —MARIANNE BERMUDEZ, RICHARD A. REYES
