DOT welcomes resumption of tourism in MGCQ areas
The Department of Tourism (DOT) welcomed the resumption of travel and activities in areas under modified general community quarantine (MGCQ), hoping it would aid the recovery of the tourism sector.
Tourism Secretary Bernadette Romulo-Puyat stated that reopening must be cautious, gradual, and slow to help those who lost jobs due to the pandemic regain employment.
Travel for tourism purposes is allowed between MGCQ areas but only essential non-leisure travel is permitted between GCQ and MGCQ areas.
Tourist destinations may reopen with LGU approval, but only accredited establishments with a Certificate of Authority to Operate are allowed to open.
