Swai fish, also known as pangasius or basa fish, is not native to the Philippines; it originates from the Mekong River in Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam. However, it can be found in the Philippines, mainly through importation. Swai is popular in various markets and restaurants due to its mild flavor and affordability. While it's available, it is not a traditional or commonly consumed fish in Filipino cuisine.
