Since the Philippines is made up of thousands of islands, there is a lot
of coastline to deal with. Although the wind and waves are the major factors for coastal erosion, human development and coral reef destruction have also played a significant role. Manila, the capital city, is a coastal city of 2 million people with whole communities (as well as major transportation systems-freeways and highways) at risk of falling into the sea. Coastal erosion, flooding, storm surges,
monsoons, typhoons, and tsunamis are all coastal hazards faced by this
island nation.

The Mining and Geosciences Bureau of the Philippines is responsible for monitoring and reporting on coastal hazards, as well as maintaining coastal hazard maps, establishing danger areas, and determining the causes of erosion events.
When looking at the Coastal Hazards Maps available through MGB, much of the data is incomplete. So I'm not sure how useful these maps are. Also the priority seems to be on flooding direction and flooding hazards, rather than erosion issues. Considering the severity of flooding that happens annually near coastal and lakeside areas, it is not surprising that flooding has been the major funding priority.
