Philippines, the Most Preferred Destination in Asia!

Tired from an out-of-town trip with good friends, I suddenly felt a surge of pride when I read this article in one of my bookmarked sites. It mentioned...

"Most recently chosen as the Most Preferred Destination in Asia by Shanghai’s World Trade Fair, the Philippines is experiencing an unprecedented tourism boom. Last month, it was also the best performer among Asean nations on the stock market index, pleasantly surprising everyone."

Hooray, hooray, hooray! It's about time. I got so excited and mentally note that I have to visit ASAP the province stated in the article that will unveil the latest Banyan Resort. As in fly there NOW NA!

Previously I've cited that Philippines has 7,107 islands. And in Palawan, the country's biggest province contains 1,768. Now that Banyan Resort published their intention to build their world class accommodation here, they will give Amanpulo Resort a run for its money. Amanpulo incidentally, has a reputation beyond world class. A look at tripadvisor.com revealed that the island paradise scored almost 5/5 with comments such as 'the most beautiful beach in the world all to yourself; 'a true paradise'; and 'near heaven' among others.

Now, that will be a tough act to beat!
