I repeat - WHERE are you getting that information by zooming out. Nothing says 
that this group of islands is the Philippines and nothing says which Island 
THIS Naga City is on. I'll be perfectly honest - I did not know the 
Philippines actually covered ALL of those islands, I though they were several 
countries, but NOTHING tells me that this group of islands IS the Philippines!
