if u r a victim of 2am Karaoke or wake up to balut! sales, then i understand your question ;-)
as far as i know, no law exists for entire country... if ever, specific areas may have ordinances but they still require enforcement. for example, there is an area of ft. bonifacio global city that prohibits construction work after 9pm (bawal) AND it is enforced -- but that's only because many VIPs live near this area and provide the means to "inspire" local government to enforce the ordinance.
Also, some local government officials support noise inducing activities, such as in the case of Muntinlupa City where government officials from mayor down to village councilors have this program of lending for free, chairs, tables and tents if residents want to conduct party or drinking session in the middle of the street. Such parties will never be complete without full blast karaoke/videoke, where party/drinking attendants sing at any time they want. You could even have such street closed for your party.

What should we do to decrease noise pollution?
One very effective way to reduce motorcycle noise pollution is for states, cities and towns to adopt and enforce the EPA label law. All motorcycles made after 1982 must have an EPA noise certified exhaust with a label embossed into the muffler. It's illegal under federal law to replace the noise certified exhaust with one that isn't certified or to tamper with the legal muffler to make more noise. The city of Denver enacted an EPA label-based ordinance in 2007 and in less than two years mostly solved their motorcycle noise pollution problem with consistent enforcement and fines starting at $500. There's more information about this at the Maine Citizens For Quiet Motorvehicles Facebook page.
