    The ASEAN 2017 National Organizing Committee made the recommendation based on the activities that will happen between Metro Manila and Pampanga, like the ASEAN Conference on Traditional Medicine happening from Nov. 14 – 16 and the 31st ASEAN Summit itself, happening from Nov. 10 – 14.

    The full schedule of the 31st ASEAN Summit and Related Summits can be seen here.

    The Metro Manila Council, which consists of all mayors of Metro Manila, earlier announced that it would be suspending classes in all levels on November 16 and 17 due to the summit.
