Summary/Abstract: The relations between Japan and Philippines date back to the Sengoku Period. However, because of the Sakoku Period, bilateral relations were interrupted and it was necessary to wait until the Meiji Period for restarting relations. In this respect, the Meiji Period is important both in terms of the recovery of relations and the beginning of formal relations between Japan and Philippines. On the other hand, another important point of this period for Turkey is that in 1941 Japan’s occupation of the Philippines was based on this period. However, it has been seen that this issue has not been adequately addressed in the Turkish literature. So Japan’s interest in the Philippines during the Meiji Period and mutual relations have been identified as the subject of this study. In this study, it has been discussed that whether it had been laid the basis of the occupation policy of Japan towards the Philippines in the Meiji Period by the writings of the Meiji intellectuals.
