Philippines Tourism Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco has welcomed the recent pronouncement of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on the need to improve tourism infrastructure and introduce proactive policies to boost the country’s tourism industry.
According to media reports, during the Cabinet Meeting at the Malacañan, President Marcos Jr. said that local tourism-related infrastructure must be at par with top tourist destinations such as Singapore.
Thanking the President for making the tourism sector a priority under his administration, Frasco expressed the DOT’s commitment to the full development of the enabling environment—the policies, conditions, and infrastructure—that will further boost the revitalization of the tourism industry.
Marking her second week as DOT Secretary, Frasco laid down the targets and objectives of the Department in keeping with the President’s earlier directive to revitalize the tourism industry and transform it into a major pillar for economic growth in the Philippines.
