LGUs asked to promote tourism

Sen. Richard Gordon has called on local government officials in Central Luzon to make use of its three airports, seaports and expressway in promoting tourism industry.

“Developing the tourism industry in Central Luzon is easy because it is close to Manila. Ang Central Luzon kumpleto. Malapit sa domestic tourism, malapit sa foreign tourism. The three airports, two seaports and one expressway could be used to our advantage in terms of tourism,” Gordon said.

He noted that tourists going to and from the region can use the Subic International Airport in the Subic Freeport Zone, the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport in Clark, Pampanga and the Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Metro Manila. They can also use the seaports in Subic and Manila and the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway, in traveling to Central Luzon.
