Boracay stakeholders vow to police own ranks
Excerpt
Stakeholders IN Boracay have pledged to police their own ranks to ensure compliance to environmental and other laws as the resort island prepares to reopen for tourists. The Boracay Stakeholders Core Group recently met with Tourism Undersecretary Arturo P. Boncato, Jr. to discuss the programs on compliance, accreditation, trainings, and promotions and marketing. The DoT-6 will conduct trainings for Boracay frontliners starting this month in preparation for the reopening in October. The Boracay group, meanwhile, sought government assurance that only compliant establishments would be allowed to operate.
