Are Miranda rights applicable in Philippines?

No, Miranda rights are specific to the United States only. Even if you have similar rights in another country, it is incorrect to call them "Miranda rights." The name "Miranda rights" comes from the US Supreme Court case "Miranda v. Arizona" which established that a person being questioned by the police must be advised of his or her right to have an attorney present, and of certain other rights.

What landmark Supreme Court case established the right of the accused to know their rights?

Miranda v. Arizona, 384 US 436 (1966)Miranda v. Arizona, (1966) was the landmark Supreme Court case in which the court declared that the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America, (which also applies to the states through application of the Fourteenth Amendment) required that before law enforcement officers attempt to interrogate the accused, they inform the accused of their rights. These rights are now referred to as Miranda rights.


Miranda rights in Canada?

No there are no Miranda rights in Canada. There actually is no such thing as "Miranda Rights". Miranda Rights name comes from the court decision involving Miranda v. Arizona when a defendant didn't know his legal rights, most notably the 5th Amendment in the "Bill of Rights" in the US Constitution. Which is protection from self incrimination, hence, "You have the right to remain silent" and the 6th Amendment which guarantees legal consul, "You have the right to consult with a lawyer" All of these "rights" are guaranteed to Americans and their visitors to the US (both legal and illegal) by the US Constitution. Hence Canada is not a part of the United States and there for, Canadians do not have these exclusive rights as guaranteed by the Constitution and further established by the Miranda v. Arizona court case.Now the Canadian Citizens do have something similar to this however it is called "Charter of Rights and Freedoms". It is not the same as the Miranda Warning, Miranda Rights, or the Rights granted under the US Constitution.In three related decisions, a sharply divided (Supreme) court (of Canada) fine-tuned the rules on suspects' right to counsel.In the main case, the justices ruled 5-4 that the Charter of Rights does not confer a right to have a lawyer present during interrogation.

It was the fore-runner to our "Miranda rights" -Our Miranda rights are the rights cops read to us when we are being arrested.

What Supreme Court case stated that suspects need to be advised of their constitutional rights when they are arrested?

There is no requirement to advise arrested persons of their rights. The trigger for advice or rights under Miranda V Arizona is 'custodial interrogation'. A person arrested but not questioned is usually not advised of rights, but a person who is being questioned and is not free to leave, whether or not they are arrested must be advised.
