Visa on Arrival means that Filipinos still need to secure a valid visa and pay the required fees upon arrival in that particular country.
Some observations: most countries where a prior visa is not required for Filipinos are from the African and South American continents; most the these countries are third world nations; with the exception of countries from some ASEAN region, there are no direct and cheap flights from Manila to these countries.
On the other hand, these are the countries that allow Philippine passport holders to enter their territories provided he/she is a holder of a valid Schengen, US, UK, or Canada visa.
