Reelectionist Sen. Lito Lapid wants to boost further the tourism industry in Bohol following his three-day visit in the province.
He said Bohol’s various tourist spots, as well as its native cuisine and delicacies, make the province a unique tourist destination, both for local and foreign visitors.
He cited Bohol’s white sand beaches, man-made and natural attractions such as the Loboc River Cruise, the Chocolate Hills, and the Tarsier Sanctuary, as well as delicacies that provide livelihood for its people.
The senator, chair of the Senate Committee on Tourism, said he has tied up with the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA) headed by his son Mark Lapid to identify and develop potential tourist destinations, as well as providing funds to existing tourist spots and infrastructures that need improvement and repair.
