As I understand it, the Philippines has quite an advanced economy and therefore should have the capability to produce trained engineering staff to run the plant safely and provide back up services like Health Physics. Against that, I believe there is considerable political instability and some terrorist groups, which could be a danger to safe operation, and to the security of fissile material. Other matters are natural hazards like earthquakes, volcanic activity, etc. However to take the query on further you should contact the IAEA which is based in Vienna.

What is advantages if the Philippines is ready for nuclear power energy replacing non renewable energy resources as its main source of energy i t is good idea?

If the Philippines were to switch to nuclear power, it would answer the power shortage. The Bataan Nuclear Power Plant, if operational, could shoulder half of the country's power consumption. A great disadvantage, however, is the position of the plant. It's constructed right along a fault line. Also, a nuclear accident is also another thing.
