Department of Foreign Affairs(DFA)

Good afternoon!, I seem to not find any statistics on the number of Filipino foreign births in the regions of:
(1) Asia;
(2) North America;
and (3) Europe

That being said, may I please request a spreadsheet of these data distributed by: 
(1) Sex
(2) Place of Work
(3) Region

Thank you so much, this would be of great help to forward my research and for me to continue writing my data story on the story of OFWs, and overseas filipinos in general.
