10/21/2019 Note: Philippines
For what it is worth:
As of 10/21/2019, 15 out of 18 countries at SpreadTheSign.com sign  Philippines by circling a dominant "P" hand over the back of the non-dominant hand. (This could be though of as an initialization of the sign ISLAND using the letter "P.") Two of the sample language versions at SpreadTheSign do Philippines by using a sign that looks somewhat as if they were signing "BOSS LEAVE+."   One of the signers does Philippines using a version that touches or comes near the shoulder with a claw hand and then uses an "F" hand to depicts a (circular) grouping of small islands.
