Re: Pagbabalik buhay ng Nayong Pilipino!
Dear Mr. President,
Greetings of Peace!
I, Salome T. Habal, the Executive Director of Nayong Pilipino Foundation, Inc. have a proposal that I wish to share with his Excellency.
Nayong Pilipino is considered to be one of the country's treasures. It could be considered a time capsule for those who wish to visit the past culture of the Filipino People. Not only is it a known tourist attraction, it is also a place that preserves the very culture of traditional Filipino values as it is considered as a cultural park. In this park there are segments that promote customs and traditions comprised of Tagalog, Bicol, Cebu, Visayas, Cordillera, and Ilocos, that gives people an idea of what to do and where to go should they wish to explore to travel around the Philippines after their visit which would be good for our country's tourism overall.
To give a brief background, these area some of the featured replica regional houses and architectures that are unique for each region located in the park.
Tagalog – Aguinaldo House and the Tagalog Pavilion
Bicol – Mount Mayon and the Cagsagawa Ruins
Cebu – Magellan’s Cross and Bohol’s Chocolate Hills
Sulu – A Datu’s House, Moslem Mosque and Samal Houses
Cordillera – Banaue Rice Terreces
Aside from this, Nayong Pilipino serves as a park for families and tourist to bond over picnics and get-togethers.
Plus its location near the MIA Road near the old MIA Airport and the Philippine Village hotel is a huge plus.
I aim to make this park more alive and attractive to tourist both local and international and I believed that as former Executive of National Parks and Development Committee my experiences will help to be more effective to Nayong Pilipino. If given the chance, I would wish to further improve the facilities and features that are located inside Nayong Pilipino and would appreciate the support of his Excellency.
Respectfully,
Salome T. Habal
Executive Director of Nayong Pilipino Foundation, Inc
