First, there is no proof that Ophir (mentioned several times in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament) ever was in the Philippines. This mysterious region was supposed to be the source of gold, silver, sandalwood, precious stones, and ivory, but most of the evidence to support where it might have been is quite circumstantial. One theory about its possible location was Africa (some scholars thought perhaps where Zimbabwe is today); another theory placed it in Peru, or Brazil; other theories say it may have been in southern India. And yes, among the theories is that Ophir referred to the eastern islands of the Malay archipelago, which would be the Philippines and Eastern Indonesia.
