Hmm....an Adobo lover eh? Masarap!
The wood block is supposed to be used as a neck block....inside the uke. I'm assuming you're doing something other than a traditional uke with this?? Cigar box uke or something? You can get away with just a glued joint if the neck is fit very well. No gaps between the body and neck. I would usually use a bolt or glued in dowel for attaching the neck
Ingat!

A lot of people will drill a pilot hole thru the internal block into the neck and add a screw for extra support.

May I suggest asking Mainland Ukes who supplied the neck?

How about a challenge for the luthiers among you.
A few years ago, someone built a PC into a beer crate:
So, how about taking a neck, a bridge and some strings, and seeing what is the most outlandish thing you can build a functioning Uke with. Video of it in action for proof.

I prefer Kilawin and plenty of San Mig. Adobo is nice too

Except the crate would only have been compatible with Dell beer bottles.
