good morning!
may I ask here if you still need to turn your signal light ( to the right) if you are in a lane that is designated( and with traffic sign) / or exclusively for vehicles turning right only?

Dapat hinde pero since nasa Pilipinas ka oo dahil para sa mga hinayupak na kamote drivers na sa right side sumisingit

Yes. It is always best to let other drivers know what you i tend to do. Lalo na sa mga kamote riders.

Yes. As others have said, it removes ambiguity for those who doesn't understand road signages and right of way.

MCs (at least most of them), tends to back off if they see your turn signals. Otherwise, they'd just squeeze between you and the gutter if they even remotely think that you're not going to turn right.

I do so too. Every turn I make, I use the turn signals even if I am in a dedicated turning lane. Some MCs though, when they see that you are turning, uunahan ka pa nila para di mo sila maabala sa pagingit singit nila.
