MANILA, Philippines—The only website honoring the Philippines’ role in defending the Republic of Korea against communist conquest during the Korean War can now be read in Korean, Filipino and Cebuano.

The website, “The Philippine Expeditionary Force to Korea (PEFTOK): 1950-1955,” is located at www.peftok.blogspot.com.
