PUERTO PRINCESA — Palawan is expected to overtake Boracay in three years as the country’s number one tourist destination with Bohol coming in as close second, a tourism stalwart said.
Samie Lim, president of the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry and tourism champion for the private sector, said this as the Palawan province prepares a master plan that put emphasis for sustainable tourism development.
“In three years, Palawan will overtake Boracay if they have a masterplan. Bohol will come in second,” Lim told reporters after delivering a speech on tourism at the 17th Southern Luzon Area Business Conference.
“Palawan offers diversity, he said. Its 1,700 islands have better things to offer than Phuket and Bali. Palawan has better sights to offer,” Lim said.
