Bright object moving unusually over Manila

A bright object appeared around 5.30pm travelling east over Manila before disappearing into some clouds. Shortly afterwards it appeared travelling the opposite direction from east to west. Commercial planes dont take that route. The object appeared too high to be a helicopter but too low to be a satellite. At one point it appeared to stop before moving slowly on again. The object was constantly bright. There were no flashing lights like you would find on a commercial aircraft and there was nothing on the Flightaware aware website showing flights that matched this object.
