Awesome Philippines, About Time!

From Wow Philippines to Awesome Philippines, yes, it’s about time that we discover our own country and show the world what it has to offer.

Many people say that we do have something to offer, far more and better than our famous neighbors. But there’s one thing we lack: being tourist friendly, or being world-class tourist friendly.

I hope DOT can address this and educate local tourism about it. What good are our awesome sights when our tourists get lost or taken advantage of along the way?

In any case, DOT and MTV Asia has launched the Awesome Philippines campaign. To know more about this campaign, check out the blogs below:
