MANILA, Philippines - Having learned their lesson from previous typhoons, EDSA Guadalupe Billboard
operators rolled down their billboards in anticipation of super typhoon
Lawin. Although the super typhoon did not have Metro Manila in its
path, the Out-Of-Home media suppliers could not afford to take the risk
and had to remove all tarpaulins as a safety precaution.
It has
been noted that OOH suppliers or vendors are more cautious nowadays and
remove the tarpaulins at the first sign of Signal Number 1.
