PhD funding from the Philippine government?

I’m a Filipina based in the EU for close to 2 years now. Did my masters here and recently got an PhD offer from a UK university for a social science program. Funding results from said UK university are still upcoming (between March and July) but i’m feeling anxious because the competition for internal funding is very stiff.

Any advice from those who already did their PhDs abroad, esp the UK? Are there other potential funding streams from the PH govt that i should explore? I’ve checked some scholarships but they seem to be more biased towards STEM courses, eg DOST while social sciences/humanities scholarships are very rare.
