Boracay reopens for dry run from Oct. 15-25
Excerpt
An inter-agency task force in charge of the rehabilitation of Boracay will closely monitor compliance with the guidelines it has laid down to protect the resort island from destructive practices during its partial reopening from Oct. 15 to 25. Environment Secretary Roy Cimatu, head of the Boracay Inter-Agency Task Force, said the 11-day dry run would allow government to test all systems put in place during the six-month rehabilitation of Boracay. He appealed for cooperation and understanding from all stakeholders and local tourists, who will be among the first to experience a reinvigorated tourist paradise.
