PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT TO PROSPECTUS DATED JANUARY 2, 2018
750,000,000
Republic of the Philippines
0.875% Global Bonds due 2027
The Republic of the Philippines (the "Republic") will pay interest on the global bonds on May 17 in each year. The first
interest payment on the global bonds will be made on May 17, 2020 in respect of the period from (and including) May 17,
2019 to (but excluding) May 17, 2020. The Republic may not redeem the global bonds prior to their maturity. The global
bonds will mature at par on May 17, 2027.
The global bonds will be the direct, unconditional, unsecured and general obligations of the Republic and will rank without
any preference among themselves and equally with all other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated external
indebtedness of the Republic. It is understood that this provision shall not be construed so as to require the Republic to make
payments under the global bonds ratably with payments being made under any other external indebtedness of the Republic.
The global bonds will be designated Collective Action Securities issued under a fiscal agency agreement, as supplemented,
and constitute a separate series of debt securities under the fiscal agency agreement. The fiscal agency agreement contains
provisions regarding future modifications to the terms of the global bonds that differ from those applicable to the Republic's
outstanding external public indebtedness issued prior to February 1, 2018. Under these provisions, which are described in the
section entitled "Description of the Global Bonds," the Republic may, among other things, amend the payment provisions of
any series of debt securities (including the global bonds) and other reserve matters listed in the fiscal agency agreement with
the consent of the holders of: (i) with respect to a single series of debt securities, more than 75% of the aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series; (ii) with respect to two or more series of debt securities, if certain
"uniformly applicable" requirements are met, more than 75% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt
securities of all series affected by the proposed modification, taken in the aggregate; or (iii) with respect to two or more series
of debt securities, more than 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all series affected
by the proposed modification, taken in the aggregate, and more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
debt securities of each series affected by the proposed modification, taken individually.
The offering of the global bonds is conditional on the receipt of certain approvals of the Monetary Board of the Bangko
Sentral ng Pilipinas, the central bank of the Republic.
The global bonds are being offered globally for sale in the jurisdictions where it is lawful to make such offers and sales.
Application has been made to admit the global bonds to listing on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to
trading on the Euro MTF Market ("Euro MTF"). We cannot guarantee that the application to the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange will be approved, and settlement of the global bonds is not conditional on obtaining the listing.
We expect to deliver the global bonds to investors in registered book-entry form only through the facilities of Clearstream
Banking, S.A. ("Clearstream, Luxembourg" or "Clearstream"), and Euroclear Bank, SA/NV ("Euroclear" or the "Euroclear
System"), on or about May 17, 2019.

accompanying prospectus. You should read the entire prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus
carefully.

payable annually in arrears.
Issue Date . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . May 17, 2019.
Interest Payment Dates . . . . . . . . . . . . . May 17 of each year, payable to the persons who are registered
holders thereof at the close of business on the preceding May 12,
whether or not a business day; provided that so long as the global
bonds are settled through the facilities of Clearstream and Euroclear,
the record date shall be the close of business (in the relevant clearing
system) on the Business Day before the relevant interest payment
date, where Business Day means a day on which the relevant clearing
system is open for business. The first interest payment will be made
on May 17, 2020 in respect of the period from (and including)
May 17, 2019 to (but excluding) May 17, 2020.
Maturity Date . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . May 17, 2027
Issuer Redemption . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The Republic may not redeem the global bonds prior to maturity.
Status of Bonds . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The global bonds will be direct, unconditional, unsecured and general
obligations of the Republic and will rank without any preference
among themselves and equally with all other present and future
unsecured and unsubordinated External Indebtedness (as defined in
the accompanying prospectus) of the Republic. It is understood that
this provision shall not be construed so as to require the Republic to
make payments under the global bonds ratably with payments being
made under any other external indebtedness of the Republic. The full
faith and credit of the Republic will be pledged for the due and
punctual payment of all principal and interest on the global bonds.

Indebtedness (as defined in the accompanying prospectus) of the

are secured at least equally and ratably with such External Public
S-5


Indebtedness. The international reserves of Bangko Sentral represent
substantially all of the official gross international reserves of the
Republic. Because Bangko Sentral is an independent entity, the
Republic and Bangko Sentral believe that the international reserves
owned by Bangko Sentral are not subject to the negative pledge
covenant in the global bonds and that Bangko Sentral could in the
future incur External Public Indebtedness secured by such reserves
without securing amounts payable under the global bonds. See
"Description of the Securities--Description of the Debt Securities--
Negative Pledge Covenant" in the accompanying prospectus.
Taxation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The Republic will make all payments of principal and interest in
respect of the global bonds free and clear of, and without withholding
or deducting, any present or future taxes of any nature imposed by or
within the Republic, unless required by law. In that event, the
Republic will pay additional amounts so that the holders of the global
bonds receive the amounts that would have been received by them
had no withholding or deduction been required, subject to certain
exceptions. See "Description of the Securities--Description of the
Debt
Securities--Additional
Amounts"
in
the
accompanying
prospectus.
Collective Action Clauses . . . . . . . . . . . The global bonds will be designated Collective Action Securities
issued under a fiscal agency agreement, as supplemented, and
constitute a separate series of debt securities under the fiscal agency
agreement. The fiscal agency agreement contains provisions
regarding future modifications to the terms of the global bonds that
differ from those applicable to the Republic's outstanding external
public indebtedness issued prior to February 1, 2018. Under these
provisions, which are described in the section entitled "Description of
the Global Bonds," the Republic may, among other things, amend the
payment provisions of any series of debt securities (including the

agreement with the consent of the holders of: (i) with respect to a
single series of debt securities, more than 75% of the aggregate
principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series;

"uniformly applicable" requirements are met, more than 75% of the
aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of all

of the outstanding debt securities of each series affected by the
proposed modification, taken individually.

Republic fails to make a payment of principal, premium, prepayment
charge or interest when due on any External Public Indebtedness with
S-6


a principal amount equal to or greater than $25,000,000 or its
equivalent, and this failure continues beyond the applicable grace
period; or (ii) if any External Public Indebtedness of the Republic or
the central monetary authority in principal amount equal to or greater
than $25,000,000 is accelerated, other than by optional or mandatory
prepayment or redemption. See "Collective Action Securities--
Events of Default: Cross Default and Cross Acceleration" in the
accompanying prospectus.
Listing . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The Republic is offering the global bonds for sale in the United States
and elsewhere where such offer and sale is permitted. Application has
been made to admit the global bonds to listing on the Official List of
the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to trading on the Euro MTF.
The Republic cannot guarantee that the application to the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange will be approved, and settlement of the
global bonds is not conditional on obtaining the listing.

Registration . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The global bonds will be issued in fully registered form in minimum
denominations of 100,000 and integral multiples of 1,000 in excess
thereof. The global bonds will be represented by one or more global
securities registered in the name of a nominee of, and deposited with,
the common depositary for Euroclear and Clearstream. Beneficial

of the registered holders of the global bonds, issue further bonds

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
The information contained in this section supplements the information about the Republic corresponding to
the headings below that is contained in Exhibit 99.D to the Republic's annual report on Form 18-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2017. To the extent the information in this section differs from the information
contained in such annual report, you should rely on the information in this section. Capitalized terms not defined
in this section have the meanings ascribed to them in the annual report.
Recent Economic Indicators
Gross domestic product, or GDP, growth and gross national income, or GNI, growth at constant 2000 prices
in 2018 was 6.2% and 5.8%, respectively. The main drivers of growth in 2018 were the construction subsector
and the public administration and defense; compulsory social security subsector. The 91-day T-bill rate was 5.8%
as of March 31, 2019. Preliminary data indicate that gross and net international reserves as of March 31, 2019
were $83.2 billion, equal to 7.3 months of average imports of goods and payment of services and primary income
that can be financed by reserves. The growth rate of domestic credit from December 31, 2017 to December 31,
2018 was 14.6%.
Preliminary data indicate that the growth rate of domestic credit from January 31, 2018 to January 31, 2019
was 12.2%.
Gross Domestic Product
In 2018, GDP grew by 6.2%, compared with growth of 6.7% in 2017. The largest contributor to the lower
rate of growth in 2018 was a decrease in the rate of growth in the manufacturing subsector, from growth of 8.4%
in 2017 to growth of 4.9% in 2018. Decreased rates of growth in the trade and repair of motor vehicles,
motorcycles, personal and household goods subsector and the real estate, renting and business activities
subsector, from growth of 7.3% and 7.4%, respectively, in 2017, to growth of 5.9% and 4.8%, respectively, in
2018, also contributed to this decrease. Partially offsetting the lower performance of these subsectors were higher
rates of growth in the construction subsector and the public administration and defense; compulsory social
security subsector, from growth of 5.3% and 7.8%, respectively, in 2017, to growth of 15.9% and 14.6%,
respectively, in 2018. Growth in the other services subsector also increased from 6.4% in 2017 to growth of 7.7%
in 2018.
GNI in 2018 grew by 5.8%, compared to growth of 6.6% in 2017. The GNI growth rate was lower than the
GDP growth rate due to the lower growth in net primary income of 3.7% in 2018, compared to GDP growth of
6.2% in 2018. The growth in net primary income of 3.7% in 2018 represented a decrease from the 5.9% growth
in net primary income in 2017.
In the first three months of 2019, GDP grew by 5.6%, compared with growth of 6.5% in the first three
months of 2018.
