Excerpt

A former secretary of the Department of Tourism (DOT) opined that the government took the wrong direction in closing down Boracay Island in Malay, Aklan for six months. Narzalina Lim, an Ilongga who served as tourism secretary under the late president Cory Aquino, said the closure is a drastic measure that will have ripple effects on the economic chain.
