Protesters belonging to multisectoral group Tanggol Wika (Defend Language) carry a mock coffin as they march towards the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). For the protesters, the coffin symbolizes the 'death of the Filipino language' through CHED Memorandum Order 20 which removed the Filipino language as a course in Philippine tertiary education. © Richard James Mendoza/Pacific Press/Alamy Live News
