Pleased and surprised to see Philippines so well represented but surprised it isn't a larger asian country like Japan.
The Philippines were a US territory from 1898 to 1946. People born there in that era were non-citizen US nationals, similar to people born in Samoa today, which eased the bureaucratic hurdles to move to the US.
