In human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup P is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup.
Origin Haplogroup P is a descendant of Haplogroup R.
Distribution Today, P is most commonly found in Oceania, especially in Papuans, Melanesians, indigenous Australians,Friedlaender et al. 2005 April, , 22 (6): 1506 It's 1.4% in mainstream Filipinos but 1.13% in Luzon, 1.78% in Visayas, 1.43% in Mindanao.Philippine Mitochondrial DNA Diversity: A Populated Viaduct between Taiwan and Indonesia?, by Kristina A. Tabbada, https://www.researchgate.net/publication/26813491_Philippine_Mitochondrial_DNA_Diversity_A_Populated_Viaduct_between_Taiwan_and_Indonesia It is much higher in Sub-Filipinos groups, 6.67% in Bugkalot and 11.2% in Maranao.Complete mtDNA genomes of Filipino ethnolinguistic groups: A melting pot of recent and ancient lineages in the Asia-Pacific region, by Catherine Hill, A Mitochondrial Stratigraphy for Island Southeast Asia It was found in the Philippines Negrito Aeta of Bataan at 40%.Delfin F. et al 2013.

It is also found in the Malaysians at 0.9%, including Indonesians.
