A PRIVATE tourism group is reminding tourists that registering via One Health Pass to enter the Philippines is totally free of charge.
Officials of the Department of Health and Bureau of Quarantine failed to comment on the matter when this paper raised it with them. Upon checking, however, a reminder immediately comes on screen that “OHP registration is free of charge…” when opening the OHP site.The TCP head said this was one of the many issues the national tourism group raised with Tourism Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco in a meeting last week.
TCP Vice President for Visayas Peter Tay also asked Frasco to look into the possibility of adjusting Boracay’s carrying capacity from the current 6,405 arrivals a day “based on the number of rooms in the island instead.” This matter was earlier raised by Boracay groups to the DOT after the island breached its carrying capacity last Holy Week.
