    The fourth roll-out of the Tourism Statistics System under the Behold Bataan: Pillars of Action Program was successfully held on June 26 at the Municipal Hall of Orion.
    The digital system was introduced to help local tourism establishments report visitor data more efficiently. Stakeholders appreciated the convenience it brings.

    “Para sa akin po, mas maayos at mas madali itong bagong system na ipinresenta. Unlike dati na mano-mano, ngayon kahit saan, basta may gadget at internet, puwede nang mag-update. Kung may kailangang baguhin, hindi na kailangan pang pumunta sa LGU para itama ang data, malaking bagay po ‘yon sa amin,” shared by Mr. John Michael Serrano of Serrano’s Events Place.
    The Provincial Tourism Office of Bataan extends its gratitude to the Municipality of Orion and the Municipal Tourism Office, led by Ms. Diane Mae Endaya, for their support and participation.
    Maraming salamat po at Mabuhay!

    The Provincial Tourism Office of Bataan continued the roll-out of the Tourism Statistics System under the Behold Bataan: Pillars of Action Program, with its third implementation held on June 25, 2025, at the Conference Room of the Municipal Hall in Pilar, Bataan.
    This third leg of the rollout gathered tourism stakeholders in Pilar for an orientation and walkthrough of the system, which aims to replace the traditional manual reporting process with a more streamlined and user-friendly digital platform.

    One of the participants, Ms. Reideline Rivas of The Garden Galleries Boutique Hotel, shared her experience: “Mas pinadali talaga ng bagong system ang reporting. Dati po, araw-araw at gabi-gabi kaming nagbibilang ng dumadating na guests sa aming establishment gamit ang manual form. Ngayon, naka-system na, mas mabilis na ang proseso, kaya malaking ginhawa po ito sa amin.” We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Municipality of Pilar and the Municipal Tourism Office, headed by Ms. Jeneva Cruz, for their warm support and active participation in this meaningful initiative. Maraming salamat po at Mabuhay!

    Empowering Bagac Tourism Through Housekeeping Training

    The Department of Tourism Region III (DOT), in partnership with the Provincial Tourism Office and the Municipality of Bagac, successfully launched a 3-day Training Course on Housekeeping for the Bagac Beach and Inland Resort Owners Association (BBIROA) last June 18–20, 2025, at the PSALM Hotel and Conference Center in Bagac, Bataan.

    This enrichment session aimed to elevate the quality of frontline service in Bagac’s hospitality industry, with a strong focus on housekeeping standards and practices. A total of 41 establishment owners and housekeeping workers actively took part in the training, made possible through the efforts of Ms. Edna Fajardo, President of BBIROA and Mr. Leonardo Herbon, Municipal Tourism Officer of Bagac.
    The Resource Speaker, Mr. Freddie Quinito, tackled important topics including Standards of Quality Housekeeping, Sanitation and Pest Control, Bed Making Demonstration and Occupational Safety Hazards. He also incorporated the Filipino Brand of Service Excellence, capping the session with a bonus tutorial on Napkin Folding and other helpful techniques.
    This initiative marked a step forward in the alignment and standardization of quality service among Bagac’s tourism workforce, contributing to the broader goal of excellence in tourism service throughout Bataan and Central Luzon.

    Pillars of Action Program – Tourism Statistics System Rolls Out in Bagac

    The Provincial Tourism Office of Bataan officially kicked off the first roll-out of the Tourism Statistics System under the Behold Bataan: Pillars of Action Program today at the PSALM Bagac Hotel and Conference Center in Bagac, Bataan. This milestone activity gathered tourism stakeholders from the municipality of Bagac for an orientation and walkthrough of the system, which aims to streamline data collection and reporting for a more efficient and data-driven tourism development.

    The Tourism Statistics System is designed to harmonize the way we track visitor arrivals, accommodation performance and tourism-related data in Bataan. By empowering our stakeholders with tools and training, we move one step closer to building a stronger, smarter and more connected tourism sector. This roll-out marks the beginning of a series of localized implementations across the province, as we continue working together to uplift tourism services and promote sustainable growth in Bataan.
