People display placards during a protest along a main street of Manila May 26, 2009 on the 10th anniversary of the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) between the U.S. and Philippines. Calls are mounting for a review and scrapping of the VFA after a Philippine appeals court last month overturned the conviction of a U.S. marine for rape.
