GOD!!! 4 MONTHS in the making... the question is... how did they come up with this slogan? who were their consultants? advisers? critics?

Prior to becoming DOT secretary, Lim was the president of the Makati Business Club (MBC), a group that turned against PGMA at the height of the Hello Garci Scandal. Lim's involvement with tourism?

His experience with tourism stems from to his part-time involvement in the past with several boards involved in tourism. He co-founded the Freedom to Fly Coalition, which advocated an open-skies policy as a strategy to promote economic development.

Moreover, he also became a member of the Civil Aeronautics Board.

“The position offered (DoT Secretary) presents a unique opportunity to develop tourism as a major engine for growth, providing jobs in the countryside, and helping reduce poverty,” Lim said.

He said he has already resigned as MBC president but plans to tap the influential business group for nation-building.

“I will invite MBC to be active together with other business groups and non-government organizations in making government much more accountable to the Filipino people than it has been in the current administration,” Lim said.

It was also Lim who founded the Palawan Tourism Council, which is responsible for Palawan’s rise as a veritable tourist destination.

He also founded the El Nido Foundation, which was responsible for the El Nido Protected Area Management Board that helps people in communities improve their way of living.

He also spearheaded the Corporate Network for Disaster Response after Indonesia’s 7.2 earthquake in 1990 sent tsunamis to surrounding islands.

thanks for the info sir...

But then again, with all his accomplishments or shall we say his achievements... as a DOT secretary... is he capable of promoting our tourism more progressive and productive than before? that's a very BIG challenge for him... we'll see.... sila nih SEC GORDON and SEC DURANO marked a very good impact ra bah sa atong turismo saunah... sorry to compare...

[dark_phoenix]

Watch niya mu replay sa The Rundown sa ANC. Ilang mga guests ganiha kay Pres sa usa ka advertising company and the Pres sa Phil Tour Operators (forgot the complete name of the org).

It was soo good to hear that they commend Ace Durano for doing a good job in promoting tourism during his term. They also said nga it's a good thing nga wala gani g tang2 daw ni Durano ang WOW PH as the tourism campaign sa PH but iya pa gani g improve and improvise ang campaign.

Hope maka tanaw mo. It's a good watch. They were trying to contact Alberto Lim but wala daw g tubag ang tawag. =D

WRONG MOVE!

this is something political. more expense in introducing the new slogan to the world. wasted the expense of the old slogan.

moreover, the slogan should be in English.

some people at DOT are just not thinking right!

[Jaggernought]

If Tourism catters global clients,
then the slogan should be understood globally,
Kay ganda has a lesser aura in it, I suppose.
