One thing that i noticed here in philippines is that whenever there is an occasion in a place,they always take out foods even if they almost done eating together with their family.is it a good habit or not?

It is good if there is enough food to be taken out. It is also good to the part of diswashers as they could wash the emptied dishes earlier than waiting for another set of visitors to come. However, if those people are so much boracious as in to the point that even serving spoon will be broken, that's bad.... Why don't you just use indelible ink to those who had done eating already to avoid from getting back to the queuee and ask for food again for the 3rd or 4th time around..

I don't think that is a good habit. Eating a lot is not a good idea for me.

Of course it is bad habit. For the one who took the food it is good. To the eyes of other it is not. May I say that it is the ordinary habit of the Filipino or a tradition?. One thing is if you are going to set up an occasion expect your visitors to take out foods. Prepare for an extra refreshment or else the feed back to you is bad.
