Tourism woes worsened under PNoy

WHEN PNoy steps down four months from now, his ‘daang matuwid’ administration leaves behind an outdated and sorely deficient tourism infrastructure caused by almost six years of inaction and neglect.

Addressing the opening ceremony of the Asean Tourism Forum last month, PNoy expressed eagerness at soon becoming a tourist “to experience on a more personal level what millions have already realized…” If he does, he will experience the many hardships local and foreign tourists go through when they come to or leave the Philippines.
