It’s more fun in the Philippines. This exact phrase is the new tagline of our Department of Tourism (DOT). The aim is to promote the Philippines to the world. The aim is to triple the number of tourists going here. We can only hope that this tourism campaign of the DOT launched just last Friday (January 6) succeeds this time. As a Filipino, I strongly believe in my country. I strongly believe that it is really more fun in the Philippines. And we have our rich natural wonders and our very own people to thank for that.

I’ve always believed that the Philippines has so much to offer. After all, we were not called Pearl of the Orient once for nothing. The only sad thing is that we keep on abusing our natural resources. Our tourist attractions, instead of being elevated to new heights, are either exploited or neglected.
