My Uncles Girlfriends friend made these for our Easter dinner. So good, but so odd, I had to have the recipe. No pictures yet, some will be coming soon I hope. And after looking at the name of these in the Philippines, I decided to post the American translation of them, as it's kind of a dirty word in Spanish. The name of this dish is Puto.
This yummy dish can be eaten in place of anything you would use rice for, it isn't as sweet as it seems.
It's also very sticky.
20 seconds for re-heating in the microwave, and they freeze well.

It looks like a Vietnamese "Bao" (a big steamed dumpling).

Yes I think it is puto (steamed rice cakes)!
We add variations by adding food color/flavorings; putting anise seeds, cheese, slices of salted eggs before it is steamed. Adding butter after it has cooked and still hot makes it more delicious.
I am Filipino, Puto is everywhere on my side of the planet :)

Is the rice supposed to be fully cooked or just soaked?

just soaked, it gets "cooked" when you steam it.
