Cultural tourism has come of age. Countries with exciting histories, beautiful architecture, well pre-served ethnic art traditions, untrammeled natural beauty and a famous cuisine are cashing in on a new generation of sophisticated global travelers.
The countries of mainland Southeast Asia and China have seen a dramatic growth in quality tourists and revenues over the last 10 years. Thailand is welcoming over 10 million tourist a year and Communist Vietnam is now even with the Philippines with approximately two million arrivals a year. Promoting culture and national heritage has been the key to success throughout the region.
This is definitely great news for the Philippines in general. Texas Instruments may paved the way for other foreign companies to invest in the country.

On side note: Hopefully they can make a law if it doesn’t exist yet that every plant in the Philippines onward possible 2010 must be eco-friendly.
