00:21This will also be a great help for the continued strengthening of tourism in the province of Tawi-Tawi.
00:27The people who have visited this place have a message that the province is beautiful and safe for tourists.
00:33It's different from the image that has been around for a long time.
00:37For the local that is in charge of Bungao, the capital of the province,
00:40they can already feel the gradual increase of tourism in their town.
00:44Bungao, Tawi-Tawi is a very peaceful place.
00:52That's why people see it as a good place to visit.
00:57People are very curious about what's at the end of the Philippines.
01:04Maybe more on the message to people that Tawi-Tawi is already tourism-ready.
01:16The help of making the place accessible is also great because there are flights going to the province.

01:50They bring their kids to present to the ancestors, to our ancestors there.
01:57We have holy shrines there.
