If tourists continuously give effort, how come we Filipinos could not? This is our own country; it’s ours and only ours. There’s no way we can refuse in taking care of the only country that we have.

Tourism is one of the top income-generating industries of the country. Most of the budget comes from tourism activities, therefore, we really have to take parts in taking care of the only country that we have; not just because we have to keep it in good hands for the tourists, but because that’s the way things should be. Keeping it clean and wonderful won’t benefit only those from the foreign lands, but also us Filipinos. “It’s more fun in the Philippines,” as our tagline says, it would be more fun to stay in the Philippines if it would go better and better as time goes by. Let’s not contribute to its destruction. Let’s rebuild it in every way we can even through the simplest ways. Let’s start the discipline within ourselves.


Let’s keep everything cool and clean.
