Aklan gov urged heightened security for tourists coming to Boracay

Aklan Governor Florencio Miraflores has urged the Philippine National Police (PNP) here for a heightened security following the anticipated influx of tourism in this resort island.

Miraflores said that he has been traveling abroad and that he has gained learning on how other countries secured their tourists.

"I saw many security lapses especially at the Kalibo International Airport for tourists traveling at night. On my part, I already had approved an increase of funding for the use of our police," Miraflores said.

Local officials here become security conscious as news reflecting bombing and war are reported around the globe.

"We hope to project that Boracay is a peaceful tourism destination," said Miraflores.

The governor also thanked the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and the Revolutionary Proletariat Army-Alex Boncayao Brigade (RPA-ABB) based in Ibajay, Aklan for keeping the province free from rebel infestation.

"Long ago there were reports of bus burning in Aklan but not anymore as the RPA-ABBs are cooperative in the peace process with the government," he added.

The AFP has declared Aklan as insurgency-free in 2012.
