US GENERAL

CONTRIBUTIONS
to the Philippines
1 Education System
English became the official language of the
Philippines during the American colonial era,
which also brought an English-based
educational system and changed the
nation's educational landscape by
establishing American-style institutions,
universities, and schools.

Infrastructure 2

Significant investments in ports,

telephones, roads, and bridges
were made in the Philippines
during the American colonial era,
which aided in the country's
economic development.

3 Legal System and Governance

The Philippines' political environment is
still being shaped by the US-
introduced democratic governance
system, which established a legal
system, civil service, and democratic
institutions.

Healthcare 4

Public health outcomes and

healthcare infrastructure in the
Philippines have improved as a
result of US-initiated public health
campaigns and hospital
establishments.

5 Economic Development
US investments have helped the
Philippines' economic progress in a
number of industries, including
manufacturing, mining, and agriculture.
Preferential trade agreements between
the US and the Philippines were
beneficial to both parties.

Cultural Exchange 6
There has been a lot of cultural
interchange between the US and
the Philippines, and American
influences may be seen in many
areas of Philippine culture, such
as language, literature, music,
and food.
