It's interesting to me because they specifically mentioned coming to the Philippines, and when they do they will put the authorities in a somewhat awkward position. The wives, daughters, and mistresses of the wealthy here have traditionally gone abroad to deal with awkward pregnancies, to the extent that a quick trip to Hawaii has become virtually synonymous with abortion (though China is becoming more and more popular). Protests have always been met by the authorities (whose wives, daughters, and mistresses are often involved) with shrugs of impotence and a comment that no Philippine law was broken.

One wonders what they will say when somebody provides the same opportunity for poor women, who have much better reasons to seek abortion....
