A resolution calling for the joint efforts of the Bacolod City Government through Mayor Evelio Leonardia and the Provincial Government through Gov. Alfredo Marañon Jr., to come up with their tourism officers, with an attractive and complete tourism promotion package for Bacolod and the province of Negros Occidental as premier tourism destination, was approved Wednesday by the Bacolod Sangguniang Panlungsod.
The resolution was authored by Councilor El Cid Familiaran and co-authored by Councilors Sonya Verdeflor, Em Ang, Archie Baribar, Catalino Alisbo, Elmer Sy, Homer Bais, Al Victor Espino and Dindo Ramos. The resolution said tourism is an indispensable and a major industry of every country, a rich source of revenues and employment that pump primes its economy. It also said the joint efforts of the Bacolod and Negros Occidental governments in coming up with an attractive and complete tourism promotion package will provide Bacolod and all component local government units in Negros Occidental with revenue and employment-generating opportunities for its constituents. Meanwhile, the SP also approved Wednesday an ordinance requiring certain measures in the sale of bullets and ammunitions of any caliber by any gun store or establishment in Bacolod City, and another ordinance regulating the possession or use of headgear, commonly known as “bonnet” or “mask.” An ordinance requiring all hospitals and similar medical clinics or institutions to post a copy of Republic Act 8344 the SP also approved.
