Countries set up agricultural import regulations to prevent worldwide spread of pathogens as well as insects. Your missing those fruits doesn't compare to the damage contaminated plants, yes seeds, could do to the country's agriculture and natural flora.
Phillipines has a ag import regulations. http://gain.fas.usda.gov/Recent%20GAIN%20Publicati...
Also, what makes you think they would grow there? Are there regions there that have freezing or near freezing temperatures?

The cherries and peaches will most like not grow there - which is why you can't find them locally. They need winter to survive. I suspect strawberries are the same way.
Stick to the fruits that LIKE growing in the Philippines. Go to a local garden center and see. There are many, amazing fruits that you can grow there that you CAN'T grow in the U.S.! Enjoy the things you can, and revel in the world's diversity, understanding that you can't make everything grow everywhere.
