These countries are not exactly powerhouses; Philippines can’t get past China, Japan and South Korea in international basketball competition. Filipinos should focus on games that doesn’t put them in heights disadvantage, i.e. Soccer, Baseball, Tennis, Golf even Badminton where the Indonesians excels.
