SENATOR Cynthia Villar promoted the Philippines as an agri-tourism destination as she led the Philippine delegation at the China-Asean Expo held in Nanning, Guangxi, China.

The Philippines’ theme this year is agri-tourism supplementing the bid to promote the Philippines as a destination of choice for agri-tourism. The theme is anchored on “Farm Tourism Development Act of 2016,” enacted into law as Republic Act 10816 last May.

“The Philippines is blessed with abundant natural resources, biological diversity and cultural heritage. Our country has what it takes to take a strong lead in agri or farm tourism, that is the main motivation for me, my fellow legislators and industry stakeholders to put in place an enabling law that improve the industry standards, professionalize the industry players and boost the growth of the industry,” Villar said in her speech at the Nanning International Convention and Exhibition Center.
