Hi welcome to the forum!!!

I've already sent you a message about where to buy them It is very rare because they are not allowed. Do you know that even RES are now prohibited? I know some breeders around my area which is probably better because they are captive bred, not wild caught.

Post pictures of your turtles! I also have RES, they are about 6" and they chase sword tails all day long and never catches them LOL

Welcome fellow asian member.
No idea where you can get tortoise though, but maybe there are some breeders in the phillippines.
Good luck!
