Boracay Island, the world-famous resort in central Philippines, fulfilled its 2012 target of attracting one million tourists on Friday, a local official said.
A Korean national registered as the one-millionth tourist who visited the island in the year of 2012 at 2:40 p.m. local time, said Jony Salme, president of Boracay Foundation Incorporated, which is a group of business stakeholders in this resort island.
According to Salme, the government of Aklan province, to which Boracay belongs, has renewed the target of tourist arrivals, expecting to draw 1.2 million tourists by the end of the year.
This resort island, famous for its fine white sand beach, was rewarded as the best beach island in the world by international travel magazine Travel + Leisure earlier this year.
