Based on the author's experiences in Philippine studies over the past decade, this book uses personal stories of living and studying in the Philippines as a starting point. Written in a lively and engaging style, it combines professional data and analysis to present readers with a comprehensive view of Philippine society, including national character, food culture, population, economy (such as economic development, poverty issues, and foreign investment), and education (major universities and educational levels). With the rise of regional studies and the need for disciplinary development, understanding and learning about Southeast Asian countries is becoming increasingly important, and related research will contribute to the development of regional studies as a first-level discipline.
