http://www.philstar.com/business/2014/11/04/1387689/japan-move-seen-positive-phl I wouldn't have thought Japan was the primary destination of exports of the Philippines. What exactly is it they are exporting there? My guess is fruit/food goods.
Is it just me or did anyone else notice that the numbers here are irrelevant. 21.16% of shipments is what percentage of GDP or monetary value? Or is it just the number of times that a shipment of indeterminate size and / or value went to Japan from the philippines?
