IT Park to Open in Tagbilaran City, Bohol

Al Uy, president of Tagbilaran Uptown Realty Corporation, said that the structure is being built on a 1.3-hectare lot across the Island City Mall and the Central Public Market. The company has tapped Pampanga-based Segnor Construction and Development Corporation as the project contractor.

Uy said that the entire IT hub can accommodate up to 1,000 seats for BPO companies that have three work shifts per day. “If BPO companies will come in and they take 1,000 seats, then let’s just say that there will be three shifts of 8 hours each. All in all, there will be 3,000 [jobs],” he added.

According to Uy, the structure is expected to be complete 10 to 12 months after the start of the civil works. The building will house business process outsourcing (BPO) firms and support service establishments such as restaurants, coffee shops and banks. Local telecommunication giants Globe and PLDT have already agreed to provide the IT park with faster Internet connection through fiber optics.

Uy admitted that land development ventures involving the BPO industry are risky. He said that the project is needed to help Bohol keep up with other provinces which have benefited greatly from the multibillion-peso BPO industry. The company is already negotiating with BPO companies in Manila that are interested in setting up business in Bohol. “It’s a risk. What if nobody will occupy the establishment? But if I don’t put up the building, Tagbilaran City and Bohol will be left behind,” said Uy. “So the implication is great. The landscape in Tagbilaran will change in terms of jobs.”

bohol-scam-alert

Bohol Transportation Scams

Taxi, Tricycle Drivers, tour guides and local Drivers taking you to your desired destination might try every trick in the book, from asking you for extra money for a fare to driving to offering cheaper accommodations or motorcycle rentals. Yes its a pain in the but, but there are was to handle it while visiting here. The best way is to know the prices for the different destinations beforehand that way your savoy about what the price should be and spot a scammer. Another tip is always agree on a price before you get the ride and don’t pay until you get where you need to be.

Tricycle Costs – Bohol

The major mode of transport in Tagbilaran City and other places in Bohol is the tricycle, a small cab powered by a motorcycle that can accommodate up to 3 passengers. Tricycles are usually limited only to the city or town where they are licensed to operate, but in some cases they can take you to neighboring towns. The normal rate for tricycles in Tagbilaran City is 8 pesos per kilometer. so getting around Tagbilaran City shouldn’t cost you more than 50 PHP. Some will ask for up to 500PHP This is a scammer and should be avoided (Walk away) there are lots of honest tricycle drivers, you just have to find one.

Bohol Transport Vans or (V-Hire)

If you have a large group or a family, its best to arrange transport before you arrive so you don’t have to deal with the drivers who are outside the seaport/airport offering their services for inflated prices. Its usually between 250 PHP – 600 PHP for transport van or (VHire) to alona beach from the seaport/airport.

Bohol Motorcycle rental scam

When renting a scooter to scoot around the Bohol countryside it can quickly turn into a nightmare when the bike you’re riding is either stolen (Yes they will sometimes rent stolen motorcycles to visitors) outdated registration, breaks down or you have an accident.

Pulled over by the police? If you get pulled over driving a stolen (yes you will run into stolen motorcycles being rented here) or illegally registered motorcycle in Bohol this could turn into a nightmare and some jail time. Make sure you get up-to date contracts and paperwork that matches the owners name before you rent a motorcycle here.

If its an accident your in: The owner of the motorcycle will then take you and his damaged bike to their scammer repair shop, where the mechanic makes a big number estimate of the damage.
The owner then will insist you cover the cost for the repairs. So You shell out a ton of cash to cover the costs of the (already damaged bike).
More than likely, you’ve just given them more cash than they would make in a month.

TIP: If you need a reliable motorcycle rental place we also recommend you use Dimaond Motorcycle Rentals from boholmotorcyclerentals.com.

Remember, while renting a motorcycle, the rules of the road dont apply here. Its totally different than what you used to at home. So be careful driving and LOOK OUT FOR DOGS Running across the street here in Bohol! Avoid driving at night!
In conclusion: You will have a lot more fun here if you just follow these simple “don’t get scammed while visiting Bohol” guidelines.

Green travel is not a new thing in the Philippines. Since 1992, ‘ecotourism’ or sustainable tourism development, has been a focus of the Philippines Department of Tourism.

Bohol, the tenth largest island in the Philippines offers diverse attractions of ecology, history, culture, and many natural heritage sites. Known for its Chocolate Hills, Philippine Tarsiers and cosy white sand beaches, Bohol has long been a favorite tourist spot in the Philippines, not only to foreign travelers but also local ones. Located centrally within the Philippines it is accessible from all major transport hubs, by air or by boat.

Aviation has a difficult relationship with sustainability; it generates nearly as much carbon dioxide in a year as the total population of Africa. Visitors to Bohol from closer destinations may want to consider one of the many ferry services available. Unfortunately, visitors from further afield often cannot avoid flying. You can offset your carbon emissions, either through your flight or tour operator or directly through organizations like Carbon Neutral, and contribute to a sustainable environmental project.

Come to Visit Bohol! A unique blend of Culture and Nature!

Bohol and Luxury Cruises
A ferry is not the only way to reach Bohol by sea. The cruise industry is the fastest growing travel sector in the world, and recently Bohol has been attracting attention as a cruise ship destination. It’s easy to understand the popularity of cruise ship travel; often all-inclusive, cruise ships are an easy and comfortable way to enjoy a multi-stop holiday.
But they use a lot of fuel, not just to sail but also to power what is essentially a giant floating hotel. In the past, the industry was criticized for knowingly polluting the seas and strongly resisting any sort of environmental regulation. But cruise ships are able to access unbeatable spots for wildlife watching and viewing natural wonders such as glaciers and the northern lights, they naturally appeal to the types of tourists who are interested in conservation. Luckily, the industry has long been cleaning up its act in an effort to become greener. The last 10 years have seen cruise ships cut their waste and garbage by almost 50%. They have invested in advanced technology making it possible to reuse wastewater for use in laundry and flushing toilets, installed solar panels and begun converting used cooking oil to more environmentally friendly biodiesel. Ships are fitted with high-efficiency appliances and new ships are built and designed in ways to protect and conserve the environment. The cruise ship Celebrity Solstice powers its elevators and 7,000 LED lights with 216 solar panels. With this focus on sustainability and protecting the environment, now is a great time for Bohol to be introduced as a cruise destination.

Local Travel Choices
But it’s not only the travel you choose to reach your destination to consider. When on holiday, use public transport or cycle whenever possible. Bohol has a good public transport network of buses, tricycles and jeepneys, the latter originating from the reuse of old US military jeeps and used all over the country as a means of public transport. For difficult to reach areas, river cruises allow visitors to venture deep into the countryside and Bohol offers many tours along the Loboc Rover.

Social versus Environmental – Balancing The Benefits
Greener travel isn’t just about the environment; it’s also about improving the lives of local people. Tourism offers work opportunities, increased commerce for local shops, and usually spurs reinvestment in the local area. In turn, eco-tourism specifically encourages practices that provide meaningful connections with locals and the chance for a greater understanding of local cultural and social issues. Air travel will produce carbon emissions; this is unavoidable. If you stay at home, your carbon footprint may stay low, but it also means any benefit your travel could have meant to that local community is lost. So fly and participate in the carbon offset scheme, and know that the tourist activities you choose to participate in will have a positive impact on the lives of the local people. We want to keep the world beautiful, but we also want to experience it. With a little thought and consideration, tourism can be an amazing, not only for us but also for the local people of the areas we visit. We must make the best of a bad choice, minimize the negative impact and try our hardest to maximize the positive.
