The Aklan Provincial Tourism Council is not threatened with the emergence of new tourism destinations in the countryside as this resort island has already cemented its popularity as the premier tourism destination.
Vicky Ramos-Antonino, who also heads the regional tourism council, said that they appreciate the emergence of tourism destinations in the country although some of them are apparently wanting to compete in this resort island.
"I could say that Boracay is not threatened with other emerging tourism destinations in the country because the resort island has been widely known for too many years. Tourists may still want to visit this resort island despite the other alternative tourism destinations," said Ramos-Antonino.
Residents here said that this resort island too has been visited by Hollywood stars in the previous years. Among the Hollywood personalities who had discreetly visited this resort island were Michael Jackson, Madonna, and recently Michael Madsen, among others.
Unconfirmed reports also indicated that Hollywood couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie might have also visited this resort island years ago.
Some of the luxurious hotels here also reported of having frequent guests who are royalties from Muslim countries around the world. Their visit, however, were deemed confidential as part of the tourism packages.
Boracay Island has been considered as one of the world's top ten best beaches in 2007 and in 1997.(PNA)
