Step-by-step explanation:

The Philippines is an "outlier" in the region in numerous ways. It was the only Asean country to have been colonised by Spain and the US. And it is the only Catholic nation among the Asean members. After the end of World War II, the Philippines was seen as an Asian country with great economic potential.
