MANILA (AFP) - Two explosions occurred in a business district of the Philippines capital Manila on Friday but no one was hurt in the blasts, police said.

The explosions occurred just a few meters (feet) apart near a police post in the Ortigas district of Pasig City, Manila, National Police Chief Arturo Lomibao said.

Police said the blasts cracked the concrete sidewalk but caused no further damage. Business went on as usual in Ortigas, which contains several major shopping malls, offices and the headquarters of the Asian Development Bank.

Lomibao said the crudely-made explosive devices lacked a triggering or wiring mechanism.

He did not say who might be responsible for the blasts.

The blasts came just before President Gloria Arroyo ended a week-long state of national emergency to counter an alleged coup plot by rebellious military and police officers and communist insurgents.
