Marcos pushes 'chibog' tourism

Marcos talked about gastronomic tourism in his latest vlog titled “Chibog,” posted on his YouTube channel on Sunday. Chibog is Filipino slang for “eat.”

The President, who considers himself a “foodie,” noted that many Filipino dishes have gained popularity not only among the locals, but also foreign influencers.

“ Our dishes are famous all over the world,” Marcos said in the six-minute video.

He cited Filipino dishes that have made it to the list of online food database, TasteAtlas, including sinigang, a Filipino soup characterized by its sour and savory taste.

TasteAtlas’ latest survey ranked Filipino cuisine as the 33rd best in the world, with sinigang as the 97th best dish.
