Ms. Rose, I get the information from the official website of Consulate General of Philippines in Shanghai:
The Philippine Consulate General in Shanghai advises the public that starting Monday, 15 June 2009, it will accept and process applications for the Machine Readable Passports (MRPs).

Processing of MRP applications will take six (6) weeks. Applicants are, therefore, advised to submit their applications at least three (3) months before their scheduled travel, before the expiration of the Chinese visas, or before the expiration of their regular green passports, to avoid inconvenience. Applicants are also reminded that Philippine passports may be renewed six (6) months before the expiry date.

All regular green passports issued earlier will remain valid and will be honored by immigration authorities worldwide until the expiry date stated in their passports.

All applicants, whether those applying for a renewal of their passports or those applying for the first time, MUST APPEAR PERSONALLY at the Consular Section of the Philippine Consulate General to affix his thumb mark and sign his application form. Applications by mail will not be accepted.

Please observe the following procedure when applying for a Machine Readable Passport (MRP): please refer to http://www.philcongenshanghai.org/passport.htm
