The Philippine Trench (also known as the Manila Trench) is a deep underwater trench that is caused by the collision of two tectonic plates (the Philippine Sea Plate and the Eurasian Plate) east of the Luzon island of the Philippines. The Eurasian Plate is subducting underneath the Philippine Sea Plate at a rate of approx. 16 cm/year. This tectonic activity causes most of the volcanic activity on Luzon, including the cataclysmic eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in 1991.
The Philippine plate slid under the Eurasian plate.
The landforms that could develop at a continental and oceanic divergent plate boundary includes; Rifts and Volcanic Mountains.
Asia's major landforms were created by a combination of tectonic plate movements, volcanic activity, and erosion over millions of years. The collision of tectonic plates, such as the Indian plate colliding with the Eurasian plate, led to the formation of mountain ranges like the Himalayas. Volcanic eruptions also contributed to the creation of landforms like volcanic islands and plateaus. Erosion by wind, water, and ice further shaped the land by carving out valleys, canyons, and other distinctive features.
The Philippine archipelago is primarily formed through tectonic plate movements along the boundaries of the Philippine Sea Plate, Eurasian Plate, Pacific Plate, and the small Philippine Mobile Belt. The collision and subduction of these plates result in the formation of volcanic arcs, trenches, and uplifted regions, creating the diverse landforms and islands that make up the Philippine archipelago.

The Philippine Plate is an oceanic plate located in the western Pacific Ocean. It includes parts of the Philippines, as well as portions of Japan, Taiwan, and Indonesia.
