Things to know before setting off for Boracay Island
Excerpt
Boracay Island is reopening today after several months of rehabilitation. But there are some things one must be mindful of before heading for one of the top tourist destinations in the country. One is that the island may not be able to accommodate a lot of people than it used to. In September, President Rodrigo Duterte, during a visit in Cebu, stressed the importance of limiting Boracay’s carrying capacity. “Not all Filipinos and all tourists can go to Boracay. It cannot accommodate everyone,” the President was quoted as saying in a report by the Philippine News Agency (PNA), the official news outlet of the government.
