Statistics of Filipinos who went to the Soviet Union

Requested from CFO by A. Esquivias at 05:07 AM on Jul 10, 2022.
Purpose: Research for Thesis on Filipino Students in the USSR
Date of Coverage: 01/01/1976 - 12/31/1991
Tracking no: #CFO-746219559446

Esquivias 05:07 AM, Jul 10, 2022 

Good Morning, 

I am Alessio Reza Pascual Esquivias, MA History, University of the Philippines, 2016-91172. 

Is it possible that there can be information or statistics on how many Filipinos went to the Soviet Union and left said country from 1976-1991?  Can these be divided to certain classifications such as numbers of Filipino students who went there? Can I get the results digitally or not? I have searched through the online CFO sources, but there seems to be a lack of information on Filipinos who went to the USSR.


Thank you very much!  

Sincerely, 

Alessio Reza Pascual Esquivias
