    DOT Mobile Accreditation

    DOT Mobile Accreditation

    The Provincial Tourism Office of Bataan, in partnership with the Department of Tourism – Region III (DOT), conducted the DOT Mobile Accreditation on April 3 and 29, 2025, at Casa Veles in the Municipality of Mariveles and Krossroads Restobar in the Municipality of Bagac, as part of the Bisita Bayan program under the Provincial Government of Bataan. This activity aims to make government services more accessible to its constituents. The prime agenda of this caravan is to educate tourism-related businesses and stakeholders about the positive impacts of DOT accreditation on their establishments in terms of promotion and standardization.

    DOT Mobile Accreditation

    Tourism-related establishments from Mariveles and Bagac actively participated in the sessions. The brief overview and orientation on the guidelines and accreditation flow, in reference to the Updated Progressive Accreditation System (UPAS), were facilitated by the DOT Region III – Standards, Regulations, and Trainings Division Team, led by Ms. Avon Timbol, Chief Operating Officer, and Mr. Allen Gonzales, Supervising Tourism Operations Officer. Included in the discussion was the UPAS Self-Assessment Checklist for Mabuhay Accommodation, which outlines the process of progressive accreditation from Basic to Premium Category. This session will be held every month in each municipality in Bataan.

    These activities will not only strengthen the tourism industry in Bataan, but also help promote local tourism establishments in the province and showcase what they can contribute to the vibrant tourism industry of Central Luzon.

    Ayta Magbukun children graduate from Bahay Wika

    Nineteen children from the Ayta Magbukun community in Barangay Bangkal, Abucay were recognized yesterday as they graduated from the Bahay Wika Program.

    This initiative of the Provincial Government of Bataan and Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino aims to revitalize their indigenous language and preserve their culture for the succeeding generations.

    The program provides immersive language education to young members of community to ensure the continuity of their ancestral tongue. Meanwhile, five tribe members were likewise recognized for completing the Master-Apprentice Language Learning Program (MALLP), an intensive one-on-one training designed to enhance language proficiency among older community members. This dual approach ensures that both the youth and elders are equipped to sustain their linguistic heritage.

    This ceremony marks the 6th graduation rite, with a total 141 Bahay Wika and MALLP graduates since the program’s inception in 2015. The event was spearheaded by the Provincial Tourism Office led by Ms. Danica Lolita Tigas-Rodriguez, and attended by Tribal Elder Rebecca Reyes, Chieftain Rosita Sison, Barangay Captain Amante Inocencio and Abucay Indigenous Person Mandatory Representative Jhay-R Reyes.


    The initiative has garnered national recognitions for its efforts including being one of the “Top Ten Outstanding Local Governance Programs” in the country from the Galing Pook Award and the “Best Institutionalized Culture and Arts Program” from the Association of Tourism Officers of the Philippines (ATOP) Pearl Awards.
