Why doesn't the Philippines further its tourism industry? The Philippines is really beautiful country to visit, it's competitive or even better than most of it's Asian counterparts, but here in Australia it is extremely rare to find advertisement for tours to the Philippines. Tourism figures also shows a very small number for the Philippines. It's like a treasure chest that the Philippine government has failed to open. It would be a great economical help. This is all just my opinion, I don't actually live there.
Why is there so little tourism in the Philippines ? Phil has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world (boracay has been voted the most beautiful in the world for 5 yrs ) but almost no tourism when compared to many other places with FAR less to offer,like hawaii and mexico! And the people are so friendly as well. I wont even mention the beautiful women !! So why ??
What initiatives are needed to boost tourism in the Philippines? Everytime people travel to this country, they dish out some frustrations from poor toilet facilites, slums and street beggars etc. Some thought they will not come back. Compared to other Asean countries, the Phils. lagss behind in tourist arrivals. In 2006, Thailand had 14 million visitors alone. Phils- 3 million.
Have you checked recently the Wow Philippines tourism website? Some people here are promoting the Wow Philippines website but in fact they haven't checked it. They do not even know the exact URL of the website. Most use www.wowphilippines.com which is incorrect. They forget the PH. It should be www.wowphilippines.com.ph

Should we be indebted to the women of the Philippines for boosting tourism? Apparently, Philippines is the top destination in Asia for sex/wife/gf tourism. Among the reasons for this include English skill, beauty, Western influence, acceptance of foreigners, and the caring nature of Filipinas. And a whole bunch of other hoola baloo. Is this something to be thankful for or not? Yes I have head of Thailand. I've actually been there a couple of times. I said a combination of sex/wife/gf tourism. And not simply prostitution or whore houses. Big difference. Sex tourists go to Thailand to visit Pat Pong etc. I'm referring to tourists that go to Manila etc. to meet a girl for a relationship, whatever it may be.

How can the philippine tourism industry become more attractive to foreign tourists? the philippines have a lot of natural assets that should make the country competitive in the tourism industry, but stats show that the philippines is underachieving in tourist numbers. tourism numbers show just under 3 mil for philippines in 2007, over 21 mil for malaysia and over 4 mil for bali. apparently, philippines should be up to par with these countries. so, in your opinion, whats keeping people from visiting the philippines?
