Hi Albert! As confirmed by Ja-a Badon, this is a female Common Hedge Blue. My apologies for the incorrect ID before. Mine is the male spotting: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/1361456003 :) :)

Hi Albert! This could be an Udara dilecta, but I am not 100% sure. Pls transfer this pretty Hedge Blue from the Moths mission to the Butterflies in the Philippines mission - http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/15553007. Thanks much!! :)
