Chingi Naval Base is an American naval base shared with the Singapore Navy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Changi_Naval_Base https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Changi_Naval_Base Here is a map of US military bases: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:American_bases_worldwide.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:American_bases_worldwide.... You can see the US has bases in South korea, Japan, Philipines, and Singapore. As well as outer laying bases in Guam and Northern Australia. China doesn't have any breathing room in the pacific. But when you shit all over your neighbors, that's what happens. They back North Korea. Have centuries long conflict with Japan. And ignore the Philippines South China Sea territory.

The U.S. doesn't have any bases in the Philippines. Under EDCA the U.S. has been able to place logistics personnel at some Philippine bases. There's no U.S. war fighting capability there, at least not yet--rehabilitation of some old U.S. naval and air facilities for future use has only recently begun, AFAIU. The U.S. also has signals facilities in many places. Some might count these as military bases, but that's a stretch.
