Sounds great so far. 

You might also want a small section on the particular challenges peculiar to 
the Philippines. Just off the top of my head:

        - The lack of satellite data (always good to plug that one). So we rely 
more heavily on contributions, especially in rural areas. 
        - The different ways of subdividing areas. City / Barangay / Village 
etc. and how that maps onto the OSM categories
        - The different names for things. How do we mark a sari-sari store?  
(insert picture into slideshow) Convenience? Vulcanizing store (cue Spock joke 
...). 

Those are a few issues that I remember from the discussions on this list. I 
think this is the sort of thing which would be interesting to others from 
outside: The quirks.
