probably not it depends on what company you have if it was a blackberry or a smart phone you could

It should. Just don't forget to activate international roaming. Check which one of the communications provider here has roaming services and what type and the most competitive rates in your destination.

No. You will need a tri-band or quad-band phone and roam your Sim before leaving Phils. The Nokia 1100 is dual band and yes, they have them in other countries but the frequencies are different. Likewise if you bring a Nokia 1100 from abroad it probably will not work in Phils. You should be able to find a cheap tri-band phone easily enough just check the sticker in the battery compartment for the frequencies.
