Gov declares tourism as Camiguin's OTOP
by Zita M. Abellare

Cagayan de Oro City (30 October 2008) -- Governor Jurdin Jesus M. Romualdo signed recently Executive Order No. 22, declaring the tourism industry, including all its allied support products and services as the Provincial One-Town, One -Product (OTOP) of Camiguin.

The scope and coverage of this EO shall apply to any person or entity engaged in the business of sale or distribution of any consumer products and services, particularly for food, accommodation, transportation and other allied support products and services which local or foreign tourists may wish to avail of.

This new development is a breakthrough for Camiguin's provincial economy that could benefit not just the direct tourism service providers, but also all the areas and sectors supportive to Camiguin's tourism industry in terms of the assistance provided by the Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP) OTOP credit Facility.

Earlier, Gov. Romualdo announced this plan to push tourism as the provincial One Town, One Product (OTOP) during the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Forum conducted last July by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Camiguin Provincial Office, in cooperation with the Camiguin Small and Medium Enterprises Development Council (CSMEDC), to highlight the observance of the MSME Week.
OTOP-Philippines is a priority program of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo designed to promote entrepreneurship and create jobs.

Specifically, it supports micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to manufacture, offer and market distinctive products and services, through the use of indigenous raw materials and local skills and talents.

Under this program, local government units take the lead in identifying, developing, and promoting a specific product or service which has a competitive advantage.

Over-all, OTOP offers a comprehensive package through a convergence of services from local government units, national government agencies, and the private sector.

DBP OTOP Credit Facility is a nationwide funding allocation of P 2.0 billion to implement the DBP-DTI Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with program objectives to support the poverty alleviation efforts of the national government in terms of job and income generation, to sustain DBP's developmental mandate by encouraging entrepreneurship in the countryside, and to reaffirm the bank's commitment to be a catalyst for countryside development by empowering the country's MSMEs through the provision of easy access to credit and technical assistance.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
