Filipinos gathered in front and around Pierre Hotel on Fifth Avenue and 61st Street protesting against Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr, their president, who is believed to be staying in the hotel, for his involvement and partnership with USA in the war on Iran. They also complained that Instead of prioritizing the lives of 2.4+ million Filipinos in the Middle East who are in the crosshairs of war, and the impending economic crisis from huge oil price hikes, he is spending the people's money on a lavish trip for him and his entourage and the abandonment of Filipino migrants-from the Middle East to here in the US. Marcos is set to speak at the United Nations this week.
