The Boracay Tourists Assistance Center (BTAC) is currently preparing to set up booths in the white beach of this resort island to avert cases of theft and robbery.
Chief Inspector Mark Evan Salvo, BTAC chief, said that both foreign and domestic tourists have already been victimized by thieves. Many of the victims left their belongings unattended at the white beach while swimming.
"The booth will be called 'Panatag Na po Ako (PNPA) which mandates the police to become more visible in the beach," said Salvo.
This week, a Korean national and two Filipino tourists reported to the BTAC that their personal belongings were lost at the front beach.
Aside from the police visibility, the BTAC is also planning to set up lockers at the booth for the tourists to temporarily leave their belongings while on swimming.
"We are currently in the process of designing such booth," Salvo said.
In 2013, at least 43 suspected thieves were arrested by the Boracay police preying on foreign and local tourists as victims.
