LAOAG CITY- The Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA), formerly known as the Philippine Tourism Authority, will hold a roadshow on the ‘Guidelines for the Designation and Supervision of Tourism Enterprise Zones and the Administration of Incentives under Republic Act 9593 or the Tourism Act” in Ilocos Norte. | |||
The Tourism Act specifically mandates the TIEZA to be the development and investment arm of the Department of Tourism (DOT). | |||
TIEZA General Manager Mark Lapid will be the guest speaker. | |||
According to Milagros Gonzales, DOT provincial officer Ilocos Norte, as one of the top tourist destinations, is a haven for tourists and investors alike and is being promoted as a Tourism Enterprise Zone. | |||
“Tourism is an engine of investment, employment, growth and development for Ilocos Norte. This TIEZA Roadshow will provide possible investors and entrepreneurs the knowledge on what, where and how to invest and what incentives to get,” Ms Gonzales said. | |||
The provincial government has been building facilities to service local and foreign tourists such as food and retail outlets and improving existing tourism facilities like the Plaza del Norte and Malacanang of the North. A tourism master plan is now in the works at the world heritage Paoay Church. | |||
Tourism stakeholders are expected to attend the event at the Fort Ilocandia Resort Hotel on September 9, 2011. | |||
