not really
the phillipines has a huge american influence (the usa did used to occupy the phillipines after spain remember)
theres much more american based fast food restaurants than in the UK - and the phillpines have loads of huge shopping mega malls. Infact, the US have a base right in the heart of manilla - it was quite near a hotel i was staying in
the thing is - it doesnt matter if its mcdonalds, burker king (known as
Hungry Jacks in australia) or pizza hut. The big companies have the cash to market themselves anywhere - outside of the usa i believe the most mcdonalds is in china
