About Central Luzon

Aurora, Bataan, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, Tarlac, Zambales Central Luzon 120o45I to 121o21IE longitude and 14o 23I to 16010IN latitude 1.8 million hectares Divided into 7 provinces: Greetings….! After that national economic picture of development, the following presentation will show how the Central Luzon economy has taken advantage of, and/or benefited from, and contributed to national growth, on one hand, and, how it has coped with both external and internal challenges, on the other. Aurora, Bataan, Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, Tarlac, Zambales Department of Tourism Region III

CL’s STRATEGIC LOCATION rr INTRINSIC ADVANTAGES CL’s STRATEGIC LOCATION EAST-WEST Connection NORTH-SOUTH Proximity to Metro Manila Gateway to the rest of North Luzon from Metro Manila The only region that has access to both the Pacific Ocean in the east and China Sea in the west These comparative advantages are: Proximity to Metro Manila enhanced by road and communication infrastructure network already in place. The population of Metro Manila is one huge but compact market for the region’s products and services. It is also a major source of tourists who can be attracted to the region. Central Luzon is also the only place in the country that provides access to three international airports within 100 km radius: NAIA I & II, DMIA, and Subic Airport Gateway to North Luzon from Metro Manila – The region essentially serves as a vital link between the huge market of Metro Manila and the resource rich North Luzon It is the only region in the country that has access to both the Pacific Ocean in the east (through Aurora) and China Sea in the west A Wellspring of Diversity CLRDP 2004-2010 Department of Tourism Region 3

Located at the heart of Asia… INTRINSIC ADVANTAGES Located at the heart of Asia… TRAVEL TIME BY AIR (in hours) TRAVEL TIME BY SEA (in days) Brunei Darussalam China, Beijing China, Hong Kong Indonesia, Jakarta Japan Tokyo Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur Singapore South Korea, Seoul TAIWAN, TAIPEI Thailand, Bangkok United States, New York Japan, Tokyo 3.00 1.50 3.75 4.00 3.50 2.00 18.0 4 3 6 5 Strategically located at the heart of Asia, this land-based East-West connection can shorten considerably sea travel time between the Americas and mainland Asia. The existing and planned facilities in Subic and Clark enable the region to trade and compete with growth centers in the Asia-Pacific region. The airports in these Zones shorten travel time for foreign businessmen and tourists. CLRDP 2004-2010 Department of Tourism Region III

The SUPER REGION STRATEGY North Luzon Luzon Urban Beltway Central Philippines Cyber Corridor To summarize, we need to implement food aid to immediately mitigate hunger as what is being done under the Food for School Program (FSP), which has also been proven to be effective in solving the problem of high drop-out rates and poor school performance. However, we need to help these food poor families to help themselves. We should not only give them fish but we should teach them how to fish. Let us all work together towards the eradication of hunger in our midst. Thank you. Mindanao

CREATION OF SUPER REGIONS Regrouping the smaller regions into bigger planning areas called “super regions” to bolster the natural advantages of five distinct sub-economies regions of the country Create opportunity across the country Boost economic and market potentials of these areas Spur further development of the entire country

THE SUPER REGIONS PLAN The super regions harness the economic strengths of major areas of the country as well as the knowledge and technology sector, with much larger economies of scale more attractive to investors, lenders and aid donors.

Death March Marker (Bagac)   Water Sports, Jetski or windsurf at Bagac Mountain Climbing Mt. Natib (Orani, Bataan) For the sixth straight time since 2000, visitor arrivals to Central Luzon continued the uphill climb as the numbers reached 411 thousand in 2006. Both foreign and domestic tourists arrivals increased. Domestic tourists were still the bulk (62 percent) of the region’s tourists. Most of the foreign tourists are from USA and Japan. Overall, what is driving the industry’s growth and fuelling the excitement within according to industry insiders are the strong government-private sector collaboration to boost tourism in Central Luzon and the mounting air traffic at Clark of low-cost airlines from neighboring Asian countries. From a mere five flights a week in 2004, these leapfrogged to 39 international flights a week in 2005. Those currently conducting regular flights are Malaysia’s Air Asia, Singapore’s Tiger Airways, South Korea’s Asiana Airlines, Hong Kong’s China Rich and Taiwan’s Far Eastern Transport. Aside from better travel access at the international front, the holding of numerous and colorful festivals and events in the various parts of the region and the launching of new tourism products also helped boost tourism here
