How to read Philippines's freedom profile
With an overall score of 54.8/100, Philippines is mixed — genuinely free in some areas and notably restricted in others. It ranks #113 of the 197 countries we track and sits within the Asia region, where it can be compared directly against its neighbours.
Its strongest freedom is Religion (7.9/10), while Political Participation (2.6/10) is where it scores lowest. That 5.3-point spread means Philippines's record is very uneven — freedom here depends heavily on which right you look at. The category breakdown below shows each of the ten freedoms in full, with the source behind every score.
