What convinced them to go to the Philippines was a Lino Broca film that was part of a festival in Europe. The powers that be (Claude-Michel, perhaps?) thought that the music of the soundtrack have western roots. And the rest is history.
What convinced them to go to the Philippines was when they went to so many places and observed that those who got great singing voice either Filipino or with Filipino blood so they thought why not go to the Philippines instead.
@@labellavita12 You are correct. Also, Claude-Michel Schonberg mentioned in an old interview that he saw news clips of Filipinos (OPM singers, mainly theater artists) singing "Do You Hear the People Sing?" and he thought they were really good.
The real reason why they went to the Philippines after going around the world for the lead of Miss Saigon is because of this Filipino singers singing English songs in a restaurant in France that’s why they decided to go and take a chance to see potential Kim in the Philippines and then they got Lea and the rest is history.
