The INTAA Induction Program was a meaningful and momentous gathering of tourism stakeholders, marked by unity, shared purpose, and a renewed commitment to the development of our industry. With the theme ‘Panagkaykaysa ken Pinagtitinulong: Pundasyon ti Nadur-as a Tourismo’ (Unity and Cooperation: The Foundation of Progressive Tourism), the event reminded us that true progress can only be achieved when we work together — across sectors, communities, and generations.
We were deeply honored by the presence of our distinguished Guest of Honor and Speaker, the Governor Cecile “Cecilia” Araneta Marcos, whose inspiring message emphasized the importance of strong leadership, inclusive collaboration, and sustainable initiatives in revitalizing tourism in the region. Her presence was not only symbolic of the government’s continued support, but also a powerful encouragement for all of us to rise to the challenge of building a more resilient tourism sector.
To our newly elected officers, congratulations on your well-deserved positions. As stewards of this vibrant industry, may your leadership be guided by integrity, innovation, and a genuine commitment to service. The path ahead is filled with both opportunities and responsibilities — and we are confident that with your guidance, we will continue to shape a thriving, inclusive, and culturally rich tourism landscape for future generations.
Let us move forward in the spirit of panagkaykaysa ken pinagtitinulong — united in purpose and strong in partnership
