Buy a pair of Ubiquiti NanoStation M5 units.  Cheap as chips, easy 
web-based configuration, and software platform originates from a 
modified OpenWrt (source code available, but doubt you will find the 
need to recompile).

Your friend will want to find a local reseller based in the Philippines. 
  Given that Ubiquiti thrives in that sort of market, you are unlikely 
to have any difficulty obtaining the hardware.
