What does Philippines have that other Countries don't?

This is just a random question that I asked one of my friends during a question and answer game (this is due to boredom). I haven't been outside the country, though I watch National Geographic and Discovery to learn more about other countries. It is really fun when there are some things that country has that we don't. An example of what I am saying that other countries have that we don't is PANDA (the animal). I love Pandas, but, they are not existing in our country, aside from the zoo. But I still want to have some of Pandas in the Philippines. So what do you think our country has that other countries don't? It can be anything (people, animals, attitudes etc.) Share them here!

I am going to answer this question, according to what I missed when I was outside the country. Number one on my list would definitely be Filipino foods, especially adobo. Second would be the beaches. Third, the jeepneys...man, I miss being in these mode of transportation. Nothing beats 'em, lol!..and of course, the people.

I think one of the unique qualities of our country is that were so much blessed with natural resources and we just don't know how to cultivate it. Our climate is tropical--not too hot and not too cold unlike in most countries. Plus we have the perfect cone, the tarsier, the chocolate hills and the most friendly people on earth :) hehehe

Hello there, i think some of the exotic foods in Philippines like 16days old eggs i can't find it here in UK. About the attitude of being filipino time,people here they are always on time never been late of else they get fired from the job.

7,101 island, the largest species of eagle, the smallest species of tarsier, balot (only in the Philippines!), jeepney...beggars on the street and lots and lots of squatters haha... there are so many things that our country is proud of and can never be found anywhere else in the world.

Life in the Philippines is so diverse that we can't fill out all of the gaps that the previous commentator have left. But to add to her list, we have dinuguan, we eat almost any bud and flower or leaves of veggies, plus exotic delicacies in every tribe. We have askal and pusakal, and many other that can be said as proudly Pinoy.
