In an emblematic display of political camaraderie and shared vision for progress, Ilocos Norte Governor Matthew Marcos Manotoc embarked on a significant visit to the office of Mayor Rogelio N. Manotoc on Quiรฑo April 18, 2024. This meeting was not just a routine visit; it signified the bridging of local governance for the greater aim of enhancing the province's tourism sector.


The primary agenda of Governor Manotoc's visit was to set the groundwork for the Tourism Benchmarking in Ilocos Norte. This initiative seeks to comprehensively understand and adopt the successful management strategies of the renowned Dahilayan Adventure and Pine Forest Park situated in Barangay Dahilayan of Manolo Fortich town. Such benchmarking aims to catapult the tourism landscape of Ilocos Norte to new heights, leveraging the insights and operational models that have spelled success for other landmarks.


Accompanying Governor Manotoc were influential figures such as Congressman Jose Manuel Alba and Former Congresswoman Maria Lourdes Alba, alongside Sangguniang Bayan Members spearheaded by Vice Mayor Reynaldo Bagayas Jr. Their collective presence underscored the significance of the visit, showcasing the unified effort from various levels of governance aimed at fostering tourism and, by extension, economic growth within Ilocos Norte.


Within the walls of Mayor Rogelio N. Manotoc's office, discussions flourished, encompassing a wide array of strategies and methodologies that could be adapted from the management of Dahilayan Adventure and Pine Forest Park. Emphasis was placed on the adaptability of these best practices to the unique landscape and cultural backdrop of Ilocos Norte, ensuring that any adopted strategies would not only enhance tourism but also preserve the province's heritage and ethos.


The meeting marked a critical juncture in Ilocos Norte’s pursuit of revitalizing its tourism sector. It laid the foundation for a systematic approach to tourism development, one that relies on empirical benchmarks and collaborative governance. By drawing on the expertise and experiences of established destinations like Dahilayan Adventure and Pine Forest Park, Ilocos Norte sets its sights on unlocking a new era of sustainable tourism growth.

Governor Matthew Marcos Manotoc’s visit to Mayor Rogelio N. Manotoc epitomizes the proactive and collaborative efforts necessary for impactful governance. As Ilocos Norte ventures into this ambitious project of tourism benchmarking, the convergence of ideas and leadership displayed signals a promising horizon for the province. Thus, this visit not only symbolizes a step towards enhanced tourism but also highlights the power of unified visions in driving forward the prosperity of local communities.
