    I have been to Alabang. My wife used to stay there with her mother. Nice region.

    I have read a lot of opinion on Philippine Healthcare and the biggest drawback appears to be in the remote areas?

    unfortunately that is very true, the rural areas where I have been to for work, It is horrible when it comes to healthcare. there's simply not enough help for those who need it.
