  • Summary

  • California, Oregon and Washington face a record breaking wildfire season. The smoke and ash have blanketed and covered major cities and town along the West Coast making for the most dangerous levels of air pollution anywhere on the planet. 

    President Duterte issues absolute pardon on US Marine Lance Corporal Joseph Scott Pemberton. He was found guilty of murdering Jennifer Laude - a transgender filipina, who the marine met at a local bar in Olongapo city while on leave from US Philippines joint military exercises. 

    Manila Bay and its picturesque sunset gets some white sand treatment as the DENR attempts to beautify a stretch of the Bay Walk area. Critics find it insensitive and are warning of waste and possible environmental consequences for introducing sand not local to the area.
