<image:caption>The Manila Metropolitan Theater (aka the MET), a national historic building at Plaza Lawton (now Liwasang Bonifacio), Padre Burgos Avenue corner Arroceros Street, was inaugurated in 1931. It was designed by Juan Arellano (1888-1960) known for his Neo Classic and Art Deco buildings. It sits adjacent to the Mehan Garden and near the Manila Central Post Office. During its pre-war heyday in the 1930s and its subsequent post-war revivals, the MET served as the grand epicenter of high society and Philippine culture.</image:caption>

<image:caption>A photo of husband-and-wife Manases Carpio (left) and Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte-Carpio. The prosecution in the Senate impeachment trial of Duterte says 30 bank accounts linked to Duterte and Carpio were not listed in her SALN. Duterte reportedly withdrew more than ₱10 million in December 2024, despite declaring "zero" cash on hand. Carpio reportedly withdrew ₱41 million in cash in one day, in August 2024. A company linked to Carpio, Cale88, reportedly received ₱319 million from companies in Hong Kong and China, although it had only two employees on record.</image:caption>
