A high-powered travel trade mission from the Philippines will arrive in Seoul on June 6 in a bid to sustain the massive influx of Korean tourists to this archipelago in the Pacific region.
At the head of the mission is Tourism Secretary Joseph Ace H. Durano, who will be in the center stage of the Korea World Travel Fair (KOTFA) slated at the Convention and Exhibition Center in Seoul on June 7-11.
Durano has been invited as a special guest of honor to the KOTFA event for the second year in a row.
Secretary Durano is scheduled to meet with his Korean counterpart Kim Myong-kon, minister of culture and tourism, on June 9 to exchange views on ways of promoting two-way tourist traffic between Korea and the Philippines.
A spectacular exhibition and performances for the launch of its marketing campaign in Korea is in store for the Seoul event.
"Our presence in KOTFA 2006 will significantly boost our marketing efforts in Korea to help achieve our total target foreign arrivals of three million this year." With a growth rate of 27.6 percent in the first quarter (of the year) posting 144,768 arrivals, Korea is now the top tourist generating country for the Philippines," said DoT Secretary Joseph Ace H. Durano.
To be launched at the June 7 activity at the Millennium Seoul Hilton Hotel is the DoT’s new marketing campaign "7,107 Philippines: More Than You Can Imagine" and the conferment of the Tourism Ambassador title on Korean celebrity Eugene Kim as new Philippine brand endorser.
Top-caliber delegation representing the Philippines travel trade industry to KOTFA are executives and officers of Philippine Airlines, Southeast Asian Airlines, Philippine Tour Operators Association, Century Park Hotel, Grand Regal Hotel Davao, Hilton Cebu Resort and Spa, Hyatt Hotel and Casino Manila, Hyatt Regency Manila, Island Cove Resort and Leisure Park, Waterfront Hotels and Casinos, Worldwide Resort Philippines, Regent Travel, Mt. Apo Travel and Tours, Travel Village and Tours, DoT, Philippine Convention and Visitors Corporation, Philippine Retirement Authority, Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority, provincial government of Bohol, and the city government of Bacolod.
On the eve of the KOTFA Travel Fair due next week, Secretary Durano has given an exclusive written interview with The Seoul Times.
