Yes, Ady, this was raised in our meeting. She says that the embassy does make attempts to convince the FCO that not all of Mindanao is dangerous, but that this appears, so far, to have fallen on deaf ears. There was much discussion about medical/travel insurance, and she acknowledges that current FCO advice makes it difficult to find suitable cover.
