In a statement posted on the Department of Tourism website, Tourism Secretary Frasco said: \u201cWith this renewed commitment, I will continue to push for innovative programs that build gains for the industry and provide gainful livelihoods for the Filipino people who rely on tourism. Our goal in the DOT is to leave no destination behind, thus always uplifting communities through tourism while engendering pride of place and honouring our national identity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frasco submitted her courtesy resignation on 22 May after President Marcos announced a bold reset to recalibrate his Cabinet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Various tourism organisations were quick to lend their support to Frasco, including the Pacific Asia Travel Association, the Philippine Tour Operators Association, the Tourism Industry Board Foundation, Inc., the National Association of Independent Travel Agencies, the Global Tourism Business Association, and the Association of Tourism Officers of the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
