Last month, I attended a forum organized by the Dr. Andrew Tan Center for Tourism of the Asian Institute of Management (AIM Makati) entitled Nurturing Cultural Heritage Tourism in the Philippines. It's been a while since I was in a classroom setup like that and I was glad that at least there was some form of discourse among the academe, government and private entities that's accessible to the public even if we're not currently enrolled in a university. My takeaways include new stories, new places I wanted to go to and a bit of new understanding about something I'm genuinely fascinated about. They did a good job with the selection of speakers and reactors. As one of the people there said, our heritage sets us apart from our neighbors and if we own it, we'll be scared to lose it and we'll protect it.
