The recently issued UK FOREIGN AND COMMONWEALTH OFFICE BRITISH BEHAVIOUR ABROAD REPORT 2014 states that:
"As a proportion, British nationals remain significantly more likely to die in the Philippines than in any other country."
Although it then goes on to qualify this, by saying:
"This is due to the large number of elderly British expats who live there, a group which continues to account for most of the hospitalisation or death cases. Relatively few tourists die or are hospitalised."
It is also interesting to note that the PI and Thailand top the list of countries requiring consular assistance proportionately.
