The Embassy of the People’s Republic of China has vowed to cooperate with the Malay local government in urging Chinese nationals to comply with local laws being implemented in this resort island.
According to Chinese Embassy liaison officer Peter Tay, Consul General Lou Gang met with Malay acting mayor Floribar Bautista and other local government officials in a courtesy visit to discuss recent issues of Chinese nationals who have violated local ordinances such as littering and smoking at the front beach.
To curb further infractions from Chinese nationals, Gang promptly requested for a full copy of the existing local ordinances which he said will be translated into Chinese for distribution to tourists visiting Boracay.
The Chinese Embassy also donated six all-terrain vehicles (ATV) to the local government to be used for patrol and emergency assistance in the island.
Leonard Tirol of the Boracay Fire, Rescue and Volunteers Inc. said that some of the ATV will be stationed at the front beach while some will be given to the Philippine National Police.
Earlier this year, Gang also met with the officials of the Department of Tourism (DoT) to promote Boracay to Chinese tourists.
According to data from the DoT, the Chinese recorded the highest number of visits as 389,885 tourists have visited the island from January to 31 October this year.
