Why do volcanoes in the Philippines releases lahar while in the other countries it releases magma?

Magma comes out of all volcanoes, though it is called lava once it reaches the surface. In an explosive volcanic eruption, however, the magma does not become lava, but instead forms tiny particles of glass called volcanic ash. This ash can then mix with water to form muflows called lahars. Lahars are not limited to the Philippines, but can occur anywhere that there are sufficient amounts of ash and water.

Are volcanoes essential to human life?
There are advantages and disadvantages to volcanoes. Lav and pyroclastic flows, ash and lahar may often destroy cities and human life and create enormous amounts of air pollution. Volcanoes can create huge tsunamis that wreak havoc on coastal areas. However, volcanic soil is among the richest, most fertile soil found on earth. Also, the release of stresses from under the earth via volcanoes also limits stress release in other ways, e.g. earthquakes.
