Manila, Philippines. 23rd June, 2015. A resident of Sarmiento Street walks through the remains of homes that were demolished last June 16, as the community protests the impending demolition of homes in the area. Residents demanded the local government of Manila to halt the planned demolition of their homes, alleging that the projects planned for the place are alibis to accommodate a bus company owned by Guia Gomez, one of the many mistresses of Manila mayor Joseph Estrada.
