I think it’s a good idea to go with a Philippines tag rather than an EA Philippines tag. Both are quite interchangeable because 100% of past posts (there’s 5 of them) related to the Philippines are also written by people in EA Philippines, and 100% of past posts by EA Philippines are related to the Philippines.
I think this will continue for quite a few years for ~80-100% of posts, since we expect only a few people to not be affiliated with EA Philippines but still be writing about the Philippines. I think that 90-100% of posts by EA Philippines will relate to the Philippines.
I also agree that for national EA groups, rather than have an EA-chapter-specific tag as well as a country-specific tag, we should just have the country-specific tag.
I don’t understand how a post related specifically to an EA chapter wouldn’t also be related to the country, so I think one country tag (rather than a country and a chapter tag) is enough.
I would prefer to just have a Philippines tag already rather than a Southeast Asia tag. This is because:
I think we’ll hit 10 posts soon, i.e. by the midpoint of 2021
We already have 5 past posts that could be tagged under Philippines
I have ~3 more posts coming up (likely this month) that would also be tagged under Philippines
Therefore rather than tagging these posts as under Southeast Asia, then having to move them to Philippines after we hit 10 posts, I’d rather we just have them tagged as under the Philippines already.
I think the principle should be like “If there are 5 or more posts already for a specific country or EA national chapter, and if you would want to create a tag for easier visibility of posts related to that country/chapter, then you should create a tag for that specific country already.” Let me know what you think of this principle!

That sounds good to me :)
(Though of course this is just one person’s thoughts—I have no official role in the EA Forum; I’m just a nerd for tags.)
Alright. I’ve gone ahead and made the Philippines tag here, along with a description for it. I’ve also tagged all 5 pasts posts on this topic already. The description I wrote could be a template for how other country-specific tags should be like. I felt that the description you wrote for China didn’t apply as much to the Philippines tag.
If you or anyone else wants to let me know if the description is alright, or if I should change anything, let me know!

The description looks good to me!
And I agree that it seems like it could be a useful example/template for other country-specific tags to draw on.
