DOT suspends tourism activities at Mt. Pinatubo
The Freeman
|May 05, 2025
The Department of Tourism (DOT) on Sunday, May 4, issued an advisory calling on all visitors and tourism stakeholders to comply with the suspension of all tourism-related activities at Mt. Pinatubo in Botolan, Zambales, following the issuance of an executive order.
-
Executive Order No. 05 s. 2025, issued by the Botolan local government, took effect on Friday, May 2. It orders a halt to all travel, tourism programs, and projects in the Mt. Pinatubo area until further notice.
The suspension of tourism activities comes after members of the Aeta Indigenous Peoples of Tarlac last month raised concerns over their indigenous rights and tourism practices in the area.
The National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) said that the Aeta community members blocked access to the Mt. Pinatubo Center to express their concerns about fair compensation and recognition of their ancestral domain on April 18.
