  April 22, 2013: Tourism Industry

Davao City (PIA) – The City Tourism Office here is looking at intensifying its promotion of this city as a tourist destination with more activities that will attract visitors here and abroad to generate more jobs.
Jason Magnaye, head of the City Investment Promotion Center and the City Tourism Office, said that bringing in more visitors to the city remains a challenge for the local government and the accommodation agency.
Even then, he said tourist arrival brings more jobs to the city.
Magnaye said that a visitor usually spends P2,800 a day, which covers expenses in food, transportation, and frolicking around the city.
“The money spent by visitors circulates and benefits all stakeholders in the tourism industry from tour operators, taxi drivers, waiters,” he said.
He disclosed that the tourist arrivals in 2012 registered 1.075 million as reported by large and small hotels in the city.
“From the looks of it, at the very least, we had 1,075,00 people who benefitted from the tourist arrival last year,” Magnaye said.
