Development Needs


The identified tourism areas in the municipality are all in need of development and improvement in order to attract and increase the number of tourists.  If these areas are fully developed, tourist would  be lured to these places thus vitalizing the tourism Industry and will boost the economy of the people.

Infrastructure and support facilities must be installed to serve the needs of the tourist. Power and communication facilities must also be provided to support the industry.

At present, an infrastructure facility to serve the needs of the tourist is inadequate. Roads leading to these spots are not paved and during rainy season, these roads are not passable. Power and communication facilities have no provisions, to support the tourism industry. Power supply has remained critical with the perennial problem of brownouts. Road unworthy public vehicles that lacks sense of punctuality in departure and arrivals is another setback in the tourism industry.

Facilities such as lodging houses, hotels, restaurant and souvenir shops is non existent although two duplex type Cottages at Badjang Spring Resort are present yet it is below standard and can accommodate only lesser number.

The natural attraction that  brings in tourist should be given utmost priority. Construction of a hotel and convention hall at Badjang Spring should be started to enhance the area’s attractiveness to tourists. The development of the Punta Gorda Mountain Trail should be initiated as an alternative leisure activity to staying tourists at the Resort. The construction of man-made beach at the Resort is another added attraction to the place.

Inclusion of Badjang Spring Resort in the Package Tours of the Three Tour Operating Establishment in the Province and all tour operator information leaflets about Badjang Spring Resort and the Sto. Ñino Church will boost the tourism industry of the municipality.

Investment from the private sector is also needed. Presently, the town’s tourist facility is managed by the LGU. The LGU’s capability to develop it further can’t be relied upon due to financial constraint. Private investor should then be encouraged to infuse fresh capital to the area.

The LGU should formulate policies and program on tourism. The municipal Tourism Council should be activated.

1. First and formost, improve the road condition.

2. There should be  tourism and Heritage Workshop in order to make plans on how to maximize the massive potentials of Valencia, with out destroying its heritage. Include those who are knowledgeable on this areas and those that will be affected..

3. Set-aside politics....Intensify education..Let the people be aware of the tons of beautiful natural and man-made heritages in our town.

4. Commission a research to do CULTURAL MAPPING in order to identify those that will be included in the development program!

I agree with your points. I especially concur with point # 1, that being the road condition in the interior parts of the town requires improvement. When I was back in Valencia in July 2010, I drove my Isuzu Crosswind 4X4 up through the road into Anas, and into Manga and beyond. The road there is but partially paved, and should be completely paved. It would benefit hundreds of people trying to get through this , especially during the rainy season.

The town could do well with investment in a tourism and heritage foundation. More of our youth should be proud of the history of our town. Many of our ancestors worked and strived hard for the creation of a "Valencia" separate from Dimiao. We should preserve that historical legacy.


Good points, Jun.
