COTABATO CITY --- This city, together with
the rest of SOCCSKSARGEN (SOX) thru the leadership of Department of Tourism (DOT)
12, joined the 28th Philippine Travel Mart held last September 1-3 at the SMX,
Mall of Asia.
Gurlie Frondoza, City Tourism Officer, said hundreds
of exhibitors coming from cities, municipalities, provinces, region,
accommodation establishments, food businesses, travel agencies, transportation
service providers and other tourism related establishments gathered together
for three days to highlight the various tourism and trade products that our
country offers.
“Cotabato City, on its part, highlighted its
culture and tradition thru the inauls, brasswares, water hyacinth, Maguindeli
and handcrafted products that are distinctly Cotabato City made,” Frondoza
said.
Accordingly, hundreds of people visited the
SOX Pavilion and were amazed to have heard about Cotabato City's development
and the interesting stories behind its rich heritage.
Ever since, Mayor Atty. Frances Cynthia
Guiani - Sayadi has been supportive to the tourism initiatives including
participation in travel and trade expos in the country.
“These initiatives will bring Cotabato City
closer to the hearts of the public and will encourage them to come and visit
our place,” Mayor Guiani-Sayadi said. (GILMHAR A. LAO WITH CITY GOVERNMENT OF
