Students stage a die-in protest at Mendiola Bridge near the
Presidential Palace in Manila to coincide with Philippine President
Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's mid-year economic report on Wednesday. The protesters scored Arroyo's alleged anti-poor economic
policies and demanded the rollback of oil prices which allegedly
triggered the price increase of goods and services. (AP/Bullit
