Again, I'll throw my two cents in, and remind you of the subject of
interpretation.
If they are still in the flask, they are - by definition - sterile and
artificially propagated, so neither phyto nor CITES issues should apply.
Ex-flask, and if the governing bodies interpret your travels as "trade", you
may not take them, as they are an Appendix I genus.

Hello. I was gone for awhile. I'm pleasantly surprised that there
have been replies to my inquiry. Very enlightening.
So, please accept my thanks to you - Ray. Kenni and Weng.
And, Ray, should I encounter any trouble getting Philippine import
permit for my plants, I'll willingly part ways with one of them and
send it to you.
Regards,
Jose
PS
I have a BUNCH of Paphiopedilum sanderianum seedlings, too, from
reputable US dealers. Domestic-grown. Not realizing how slow they
grow, I bought a couple of flasks recently. Will these, too, be OK
to bring along with me when I go home?
Again, thanks.
