Usefull and Edible Plants in the Philipines

[sharp88]

Im off to the Philipines in several months for a visit, does anyone know of any websites or decent books on Usefull and/or Edible plants in the Philipines? Im thinking I'l read up and practice a little bushcraft over there.

I happened to be looking at this journal's page earlier in the day and found this although
it's not exactly what you're after - but might be of general interest:
http://www.ethnobiomed.com/content/pdf/1746-4269-2-36.pdf

Remove everything beyond .com/ to get to the journal's homepage if you want to have
a wander around the website to see what else is there

do a search for Asian foods as most plants that are useful /edible have been carried by humans from place to place including the Caribbean and USA.
some additional info on the Philippines:
