The Department of Tourism (DOT) is one with the entire nation in welcoming the World Health Organizationโs declaration of the end of the Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) on Covid-19.
The unprecedented loss of life and livelihood brought forth by the pandemic caused so much suffering and upended the lives of countless Filipinos, including millions of tourism stakeholders and workers across the country. The service and sacrifice of so many have helped our country surmount one of the greatest challenges of our time, and for that, we are truly grateful.
Bearing in mind the significant role that Tourism plays in helping revive our national and local economies, the Marcos Administration has begun to institute policies to fully open up Philippine tourism to the world, encourage the promotion of livelihood and the creation of jobs, and usher in the influx of investment, so tourism may benefit as many Filipinos as possible.
The end of the pandemic signals hope that tourism in the Philippines will continue to thrive and transform into the powerhouse that it can be fueled by the hard work, distinct hospitality, love and warmth, and pride of place of the Filipino people.
