That's actually one of the things on top of the shipping list. I was taking a stroll one early evening on my first trip there last June and got caught in the rain. It was so cold and I was afraid I was going to come down with a fever and I had an interview the following day!
I suggest you bring a good quality umbrella from Manila!! The ones here are simply crappy - I should know, I've bought umbrellas between the price range of 5 CHF and 40 CHF and so far they all ended up in one place after being used for a couple of times - in the trash bin!!! Or maybe I don't know how to use an umbrella properly???
