The official 'dos and donts' for the Mass crowd

Oliver Teves - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - With millions expected to descend on Manila's Rizal Park for the final Mass on Pope Francis' trip to the Philippines, the government has put out a public service announcement on what people should do — and not do — to avoid getting hurt.

Presidential spokesman Edwin Lacierda unveiled a virtual laundry list of rules:

— Don't bring the elderly, pregnant women and children.

— No bomb jokes that may cause panic. No weapons of any kind.

— Don't wear jewelry or bring excessive money that can attract pickpockets.

— Bring food, water, personal medicines, raincoats, an ID — but NO umbrellas.

— Avoid bringing bags that will take a long time to inspect; best to use transparent plastic ones.
