I want to know the answer to the following question:
When was the first department store in the Philippines opened?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The first department store in the Philippines is the Hoskyn's Department Store of Hoskyn & Co. established in 1877 in Iloilo by the Englishman Henry Hoskyn, nephew of Nicholas Loney, the first British vice-consul in Iloilo.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
