essential role in underpinning the viability

lower income households through tourism
expenditure in the provinces, and

of Filipino residents.

45. • Aged and heavily congested and outdated
international airport infrastructure and
operations system.
• Inability to develop and expand air
accessibility to key growth markets in
terms of routes, frequencies, and
capacities.
Schoolof HospitalityManagement
SettingPerspectives: Issues

46. • Inadequate air, sea, and road connectivity
between the major international gateways
and domestic market centers and
destinations of interest;
• limited number of integrated destinations
offering a variety of things to see and do
(especially the highly attractive
leisure, entertainment, sport and MICE
complexes) able to support a large volume of
tourists at a price that is competitive.
Schoolof HospitalityManagement
SettingPerspectives: Issues

47. • Inadequate destination and site last mile
access, environment, utility, security, and
other tourist infrastructure to support
larger volumes of tourists in a
safe, secure, and sustainable way.
• Overlapping institutional functions
between the national government and
LGUs.
• Low budget for marketing and promotions.
Schoolof HospitalityManagement
SettingPerspectives: Issues

48. • Policy and regulatory frameworks that
have limited the ability of the Philippines
to tap key international growth
markets, coordinate the implementation
of required infrastructure works in
gateways and destinations, provide an
investor friendly environment, ensure a
safe and secure destination
experience, and provide good quality and
consistent levels of facilities and services.
Schoolof HospitalityManagement
SettingPerspectives: Issues

49. • Raise the competitiveness of the Philippines
as a destination through implementation of
the DOT mandatory accreditation system.
– Identify flagship tourism investments through the
Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone
Authority. (TIEZA)
– Work with the Chambers of Commerce and
related national and local government units to
simplify tourism enterprise business set-
up, licensing, and taxation procedures.

Setting Perspectives:Directions

50. • Safeguard heritage sites and vulnerable
groups to ensure sustainable tourism
development by improving the capacity of
sites and site managers to handle
increased tourist volumes.
Schoolof HospitalityManagement
Setting Perspectives:Directions

51. • Improve strategic air, sea and road access
infrastructure links between the 9 priority
gateway cluster destinations and main
domestic gateways of other tourism clusters
– involves upgrading the 23 domestic
airports, improvement of RO-RO and ports, and
improving 28 strategic connecting roads (850 km)
between the cluster destinations
– Improve on the frequency, quality, and safety of
sea and road transportation services through
transport operator cooperation and where
necessary, regulatory reform.
