Philippine Travel and Tour Expo
Research Paper

The Philippine Travel and Tour Expo was held last February 19-21, 2010 at the SMX convention center. With the theme “Ready, Jet-set, Go!”, the event presents an exceptional atmosphere that stimulates the desire to travel among visitors – either by air, water, rail or road, for business or for recreation, within or outside the Philippines. Considered as the country’s biggest travel event, this year’s expo was participated by 230 travel and tourism companies which offered anywhere between 30 and 70 percent discounts on their products and services. The list of companies included international and domestic airlines, cruise operators, tourism agencies, hotels and resorts, tour operators, educational institutions, lifestyle companies, global distribution system providers, insurance companies, theme parks, and food companies.

1. Regional Marketing • Before expounding on the regional marketing, let’s start first with the Philippines as a whole. The Department of Tourism had a huge booth during the expo that basically catered to the foreign tourists on how the Philippines is a great place to live in. With only $30,000, you can own a beachside property in paradise, wake up in the wonders of nature and live in the heart of a vast city. Due regards to the market segmentation, the DOT focus more on the income segmentation and psychographic segmentation. As I indicated above, with $30,000, you can live your life in the Philippines. And that was really a good branding. For the marketing tool, the people who were in charge of the booth were only giving the book to the people who look like or are foreigners. The one thing that I remembered the most was their tagline “Live your dreams in the Philippines.” • CAR- Cordillera Administrative Region- Benguet The Benguet package relies on the psychographic segmentation of the market. The province is targeting the adventure seekers, and people not used to the lower class of

    There are consistent references to imperialism throughout the novel. One reference important in understanding the imperialistic allusion to England and its dominating class at the time is the company that the Wilcoxes own called The Imperial and West African Rubber Company. Margaret visits Henry’s office at his this company and begins to understand where his “main sources of wealth”(492) comes from. Forster depicts the office as having a large map of the entire continent of Africa in which it looked “like a whale marked out for a blubber” (492). This information reveals imagery and ideas associated with imperialism, such as the animalistic simile of Africa basically being a whale that is killed by humans and harvested for its blubber to sell. Moreover, Margaret describes the “ordinary surface scum of ledgers and polished counters and brass bars that began and stopped for no possible reason”(492) that is scattered throughout the office. Several paragraphs later, Margaret Schlegel admits she only sees the “Imperial side” of the company, explaining that “Imperialism always had been one of her difficulties” (493). There is nothing West African about the office, and it merely serves as a…

    Macbeth is not an obscure play. The course of the action, unlike that of Hamlet, can easily be summarized. Most readers and audiences can come to some general agreement on what the play is about, provided that they can offer answers to the two major questions of understanding that the play poses. These answers, it need hardly be said, cannot be precise and absolute, since Shakespeare 's plays, like life, never allow us the delusion of perfect understanding. Nevertheless, we do need to decide what we are invited to think and feel about Macbeth and what he does. In particular, we have to consider why he acts as he does; why, in the first place, he kills Duncan, and then why, acting as he does, he can still attract our interest, sympathy, even admiration. The answer to the first of these questions appears to be the easier, but is in fact the more difficult. I shall argue that in the end, the answer to both questions is the same: he acts, and we respond, because we recognize in him and in ourselves an all too human, ordinary fallibility. He is neither the puppet of evil forces that some critics would make him, nor the inhuman monster that Malcolm 's final dismissal of him as "this dead butcher" would suggest. The quick but not very helpful answer to why Macbeth murders Duncan is to say that he does it because of ambition. This is only another way of saying that he wants to be King, a desire not in itself disastrous; the real question is why he believes he must commit a murder to be so, and how, knowing all the time that his action is morally indefensible, he can believe there is any sense in which he is justified. No doubt it would be easier for us (and for him) to accept his crime, if it could be felt that some external, irresistible power of evil compelled him to the deed, but that solace is withheld, even though there are some such suggestions: the witches perhaps, or even Lady Macbeth herself, as an agent…

    The new tourism campaign focus on the country’s strength, it states that the thing that other countries can’t offer and that is the happiest and warmest people on earth, the Filipinos. Even the Lonely Planet guidebook calls us “among the most easygoing and ebullient people anywhere”. This only shows the positive attitudes of Filipinos can be one way to attract tourists. Filipinos are very warm, hospitable, always love to have fun that can be a positive factor to the tourism industry. They say that fun is a fusion of place and people. One place could be a paradise but it won’t be fun if the people in the place are not so accommodating.…
