INTERVIEW

JEFFREY M. PINO, DPA

Most Outstanding Tourism Officer

There are bloggers who helped tourism industry and some are exposing the negative
write-up about Tanay, Rizal.

What are the top destination who earned largest number of tourist because of
online blogging?

• Top destinations without considering online blogging are Regina Rica a scenic
religious complex featuring an elevated path leading to a chapel beneath a giant
Virgin Mary. Daranak Falls a natural attraction of lush forest surrounds waterfalls,
ponds and river with swimming and huts. Mount Daraitan which is famous to tourist
hikers. Tinapak River a mountainous terrain with rapids and cave with natural
swimming pool and Mount Batolusong.
• Some of the negative blogging came from mountain hikers who boycott Tanay
because of Eco-Tourism Fee from 20 pesos to 100 pesos who approved by
Sangguniang Bayan a legislative branch of municipal governments in the
Philippines.
• Negative blogging condemns the Tanay province, garbage problems in some sort
of mountains and falls. Which tourist can address their problems in Barangay and
the concern officers but not in their blogging reviews that gives negative impact in
tourism industry.

Does Tanay Province is one of the top provinces who had a huge number of
tourist as of 2018?

• “Yes, we are Department of Tourism (DOT) awarded as a Top Local Government

Unit (LGU) for Overnight Arrivals and Same Day Arrivals as of 2017. Also, Tanay is
the number one Tourist Destination in the Rizal Province. Also in 2017, I have
been awarded at Tourism Excellence Award. Our respective Mayor Rex Manuel
Tanjuatco has received an award from DOT as Best Local Chief Executive in
Tourism. In 2016, Tanay Province has received an Award as the Best Tourism in
Intent of Municipality, Best Practices on Community Rural Tourism in Tour Guiding,
2 years in a row and as The Grand Winner of Municipality Event. In 2015, I was the
Most Outstanding Tourism Officer in the Philippines. Tanay Province recognized in
the Most Regional Awards and National Awards.
