So far, Vietnamese rice has dominated the Metro Manila area and southern provinces in the Philippines thanks to product quality and reasonable prices, thereby opening up bright prospects ahead for local rice exporters in the second half of the year.

In January-May period, the island state imported nearly 2 million tons of rice, including 300,227 tons from Thailand, 144,834 tons from Pakistan and 65,080 tons from Myanmar.

According to several businesses, the Philippine market prefers Vietnamese rice varieties DT8 and 5451, due to their softness.

In 2023, the Philippines' total rice imports reached 3.6 million tons, down 5.9 percent compared to the 2022 record of 3.82 million tons.

In 2024, the Philippines' total rice imports are expected to reach about 4 million tons.
