natgeo

there's so much to see in the philippines... much more than the beaches in cebu or the gigantic urban boxes called malls in metro manila. and yet, even a global site like natgeo only hosts max of 10 downloadable photos about the philippines. haaayyyy... how i wish we have what thailand or indonesia have, where tourism industry stakeholders such tour operators, tour guides, transportation services firms, etc., are interconnected with each other. through this, there will be a third party to ensure that calls for action to protect the endemic flora and fauna are pursued, as well as push for conservation of our manmade heritage sites.

as natgeo puts it, "Poverty and deforestation mar the islands' many charms." natgeo forgot about corruption and the natural tendency of the pinoys to forget about the past and preserve historical sites. haayyyy, ulit.
