00:00The Department of Tourism removed the billboard advertisement in Naia Terminal 4
00:05where it is stated that the Banaue Rice Terraces is located in Benguet.
00:09After reporting to the Regional Director of Ifugao Tourism, he reported to the main office of DOT.
00:16The Banaue Rice Terraces is located in Ifugao Province.
00:19The wrong information in the billboard was seen by Stephen Acabado
00:23who happened to have studied in the Banaue Rice Terraces as an archaeologist.
00:28According to Ifugao Governor Jerry Dalipog,
00:31this is not the first time that someone has made a mistake in the location of the World Heritage Site.
00:37The Department of Tourism has yet to remove the billboard
00:41that was part of their Love the Philippines campaign.
00:46I was happy when I first saw this because I work in Ifugao.
00:49But I was surprised when I saw it. Why Benguet? It's a bit frustrating.
00:53It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
00:56But we don't know or the location information is not accurate.
01:04They should remove it.
01:06From now on, they will remove it.
01:09So that it won't happen every now and then.
01:13They should correct it before removing it.
