I am engaged in an academic research on how Filipinos can promote our country in the local and international markets. The Philippines has a colorful history, rich cultural heritage, and magnificent tourist destinations that are at par with the best in the world.
Aside from being postcard-perfect and Instagram-worthy, our local attractions were stunning settings of famous Filipino movies. These include Vigan, Ilocos Sur ("Kay Tagal Kang Hinintay"), Sagada ("That Thing Called Tadhana"), Albay ("Kailangan Kita"), Boracay ("When Love Begins"), Siargao ("Siargao"), Negros Occidental ("Oro Plata Mata"), Palawan ("Mr. and Mrs. Cruz"), Baler ("Baler"), Bacolod ("Everyday I Love You"), Intramuros ("Unofficially Yours"), and Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar ("Quezon's Game").
