Thanks to the pandemic, the Philippines is now rethinking "tourism for the future," said Philippine Tourism Secretary Bernadette Romulo-Puyat at the Asian Development Bank's (ADB) third Southeast Asia Development Symposium (SEADS). She said the government is currently drawing up a 6-year tourism development plan to revive the sector and ensure the industry is more resilient against future crises.
