“We welcome the flight as this would boost the tourism industry of Boracay,” he said.
Earlier, Aklan Gov. Jose Enrique Miraflores said they are lobbying for a direct flight to Aklan from Taoyuan City in Taiwan.
According to the Malay Tourism Office, Boracay logged some two million foreign and domestic tourists since last Jan. 1.
