Of course UK and US ex-pats earn more than Indians and Filipinos, they'd never come here to work otherwise. It's called supply and demand. Like it or not, companies pay what ever it takes to tempt people here to work - and it takes more to tempt UK & US than it does Indian and Filipino.
What the survey should have done is compared salaries as a percentage of what you could potentially earn back home.
UK & US earn perhaps 1.5 or 1.6 times what they could earn back home. I think the multiplication factor for Indians and Filipinos is greater than that, isn't it?
