Police deployed extensive security measures around the protest area.

The demonstration came a day after tropical storm Fengshan exited the Philippines, leaving widespread flooding and affecting more than 130,000 people following days of heavy rain and strong winds, according to local media reports.

At least seven people were killed and two went missing after Fengshan, locally named as "Ramil" lashed northern and central Philippines, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) said in its revised report on Monday, according to local English daily Philstar.

Some 37,825 families, or 133,196 individuals, were affected by the storm across nine provinces and 35 cities and municipalities.

At least 13,710 people were displaced, with 7,511 individuals staying in 166 evacuation centers and 6,199 sheltering elsewhere.

The Philippines is prone to tropical storms, with an average of 20 typhoons making landfall each year.
