Revenge tourism to benefit admin

THE Marcos administration will greatly benefit from the 'revenge tourism' that started under the outgoing Duterte administration, the lead convenor of the Safe Travel Alliance said in a forum on Wednesday.

Dr. Maria Cherry Lyn Rodolfo said at the 2022 Midyear business economic briefing entitled 'New Administration, New Economy: The Philippines after May 9 and Covid-19' that with most countries and especially provinces in the country shifting to looser restrictions, people had a chance to travel after being holed up at the height of the pandemic.
