No, you wont have any problem, except that the prongs on the power cord are different, so they will need to purchase a adapter fto plug it in.. Also remember to set the computers power supply to 220VAC since they use that voltage in there homes.
I did the same thing when I sent a computer to my wifes family in the Philippines. They will have to pay some customes tax to recieve it fyi........

Send it via Balikbayan box/door-to-door. You won't have to pay taxes, just a flat rate depending on the box size. Shipping takes about 3-4 weeks. Try www.manilaforwarders.com
Your computer will work 110V so you'll need a voltage adaptor (we use 220V) of some sort so that your computer won't blow up.
