Great question. Well, let's start of with this. Filipinos, are descended from China. From China's Yunna Province, same place of origins as Vietnamese, Malays, Cambodians and a lot of Southeast Asian people. So they brought the Chinese traditions with them. Also, pre-colonial Philippines has owed a lot of contact with Chinese merchants and traders who introduced Chinese culture to the Philippines. I can't exactly remember if the Chinese had any territory in the Philippines. But I was told, there's a museum in China that contains the first non-Chinese ruler. Who was from the Philippines. Chinese culture also influenced the cuisine of the Philippines. Lumpiang shangai, is based off of Chinese egg rolls. But smaller and deep fried longer and contains more meat than the traditional Chinese egg rolls. Balut, which is fertilized chicken egg was brought over by Chinese merchants. Sao pao, steamed-buns with sweet pork or chicken is also Filipino food, as it is Chinese. In fact, back in the Philippines my dad's officemates would always made and bring these bad boys over to work and share it with us. Sao mai (dumplings) are Filipino food as well as Chinese. Chinese also brought in Buddhist in the Philippines. The ancient Filipinos and ancient Malays were both Buddhists and Animists. Before becoming converted to Islam and then Catholicism (for Filipinos).
The Chinese worked mostly under the Central Pacific railroad company.
One of the main things that made the construction the First Transcontinental Railroad successful was Chinese labor. Many Chinese immigrants came to the US looking for jobs, and they were willing to work for lower wages than American workers.
I would say, from a few websites I found, that 11,000 Chinese people worked on the railroad. They worked the hardest and had great skills to work on hard to fix problems they used to fix for the Great Wall of China. -KKBURT

Chinese immigrants in the United States worked on various projects, including the construction of railroads such as the Central Pacific Railroad and the Transcontinental Railroad in the 19th century. They also contributed to other infrastructure projects, such as the building of bridges, mines, and canals. Additionally, Chinese immigrants played a significant role in agriculture, particularly in farming and establishing Chinese vegetable gardens.
Chinese immigrants came to America and helped build the transcontinental railroad. it was very dangerous work but Chinese immigrants were plentiful and willing. they were cheap, plentiful labor which made them ideal to the racist white men of America.
