SEC. 738. Payment of claim proved outside the islands, against insolvent resident's estate. — If it appears to the court having jurisdiction of the estate that claims have been duly proven in another State or country against the estate of an insolvent debtor, who was at his decease an inhabitant of the Philippine Islands, the executor or administrator in the Islands having had knowledge of the presentation of such claims under foreign jurisdiction, and an opportunity to contest their allowance, such court shall receive a certified list of such claims, when perfected in such other state or country, and add the same to the list of claims proved against the deceased person in the Islands, so that a just distribution of the whole estate may be made equally among all its creditors, according to their respective claims; but the benefit of this and the preceding sections shall not be extended to the creditors in another state or country, if the property of such deceased person there found is not equally appropriated to the creditors residing in the Philippine Islands with other creditors, according to their respective debts.
