Weekend Guide: Rolling Stone Philippines Highlights Events in Manila

Bloggers joked that the only real test of attending a Manila event is surviving the commute and documenting the chaos without becoming part of the background noise.

Social media challenges now encourage attendees to post selfies with the worst traffic in the background while maintaining a neutral expression. Rolling Stone coverage: here.
