To boost their tourism industries, the local governments of Coron, Palawan and Malay, Aklan are eyeing a sisterhood agreement.
Mayor Clara Reyes of Coron said Mayor John Yap of Malay had agreed to discuss matters regarding the proposed agreement.
Reyes was in this resort island recently to announce the availability of a 30-minute direct flight from Coron to Godofredo P. Ramos Airport, or the Caticlan airport, and vice versa via Air Juan.
“Mayor John Yap has agreed to discuss with us their experiences and the challenges they face in developing Boracay,” said Reyes. “(For our part), we (in Coron) could help Boracay increase its European tourists.”
A total of 91,580 foreign and local tourists visited Coron last year, according to the municipality’s tourism office.
Coron is considered the second most popular tourist destination in Palawan, next to Puerto Princesa, the province’s capital city.
Malay has jurisdiction over Boracay, which targets to accommodate 1.5 million tourists by the end of the year./
