Election Observer 2010
Makati Police station
Makati Police station. The thing that attracted me was the election gun ban poster. (seen in the lower left) But when I tried to take a photo of the building, I was challenged pretty quickly. I had to prove who I was and was asked what I was doing it for. I showed him my drivers licence and my union card. I told him I was a tourist and just wanted to take a photo of the police station. It would have been too difficult to try to explain that I was an election observer. Most people have real trouble trying to understand my accent. The officer was satisfied and he was quite happy to let me take the photos I wanted.
