'You failed Albay': Why is Salceda so upset with DOT's promotional video?

Albay 2nd district Rep. Joey Salceda can't help but call out Department of Tourism Secretary Christina Frasco over the exclusion of the famous Mayon Volcano from the agency's new official tourism video of the Philippines.Mayon Volcano in Albay has been very prominent in the headlines during the past few weeks because of its restive state.

"I am more disappointed in the response that I should not bring this issue up because, anyway, Mayon is included in the 50 major volcanoes and mountains represented in the official tourism logo and slogan," Salceda said. "No love for Albay, no love for Bicol. Thank you na lang. Albay tourism will thrive without you, LOVE ALBAY!" Salceda wrote, obviously upset.

Salceda, chairman of the House Committee on Ways and Means--went on to explain why he reacted that way to Mayon Volcano's lack of coverage in the county's new promotional video.
