The triple A's - Apl d Ap, Ace Durano and Azrael
I was expecting this after the election and the big inauguration of our new president and its a heart warming moment for me to hear and read a letter from the Philippines Department of Tourism Sec. and its staff announcing that they just ended their term under PGMA last June 30, 2010. I'm going to miss the events and updates they given to us bloggers, especially about tourism and promoting the Philippines.
I'm not sure if the new Sec. will be tapping the new media again in promoting our country and be active in lots of campaign just like what Ace Durano did in the previous years, I'm in touch with Ace sometimes whenever there are DOT events and its a great moment to meet him and know him backstage and learn about his hardwork as DOT Sec., it was a great adventure with them and I'm looking forward for another year with DOT under a new term.
check out below his thank you letter to all of us.
Dear Friends:My term as Secretary of the Department of Tourism under the administration of Her Excellency President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo ends on 30 June 2010.
Over the past five years, we witnessed a flourishing tourism industry. The dynamic and lively exchange of ideas and positive action certainly contributed to its growth; strategic partnerships, valuable lessons and experiences definitely sustained it.
All these have been more than rewarding and invaluable in guiding our way as we pursued admirable endeavors and noble worthy undertakings.
More importantly, the friendships cultivated throughout my tour of duty will remain the most treasured of all.
Thank you for both the pleasure and privilege of having worked with you.
Sincerely,

(SGD) ACE DURANO
Secretary
and then let's welcome new DOT Sec. Alberto Lim
