THE Philippines and the Department of Tourism (DoT) secure positions as nominees to the 2021 World Travel Awards (WTA), one of the most prestigious and comprehensive global recognition bodies that aims to “acknowledge, reward and celebrate excellence across all key sectors of the travel, tourism and hospitality industries.”

“I am very excited to share with you that, once again, the organizers of the WTA have shortlisted the DoT and the Philippines for multiple awards under the Asia category of its annual program, which is now on its 28th run this 2021. In addition to our efforts to expand the source markets for the Philippines and prepare for the eventual relaxation of our travel restrictions, we also put equal importance in maintaining the country’s image as a top-of-mind destination among international travelers through the help of notable industry platforms such as the WTA,” Tourism Secretary Bernadette Romulo-Puyat said.
