OverviewAccording to some historical accounts, there were already Greek settlers in the country as early as the 18th century, most are sailors and traders, and fishermen.[2] During the early 20th century, a number of Greek sailors and immigrants came to the country and settled. One group came to the city of Legazpi[3] on the island of Luzon who kept their Greek identities and have become distinguished public figures and intellectuals in the country. Adamson University in Manila was founded by a Greek immigrant, George Lucas Adamson. He also founded the first Greek Orthodox church in the Philippines, two paper mills, and a shipping company.[4]See also
