    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!

    Behold Bataan: Pillars of Action Program – Tourism Statistics System Reaches the Municipality of Pilar

    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!
