About 16 direct flights from Incheon, South Korea to the Bacolod-Silay Airport are scheduled to commence December 20, Bacolod Rep. Evelio Leonardia said yesterday.
The flights, using Philippine Airlines, will bring in an expected weekly average of 340 Korean golfers to Bacolod, said Leonardia, who is helping facilitate the tours.
“This is our rehearsal for the time when we will have regular international flights, bringing in a regular flow of tourists to our city,” Leonardia said. “We need to put out our best,” he added.
“ This is not yet the end of the battle. We have just started.”
This was what Bacolod City Legal Officer Aireen Bonghanoy claimed yesterday about the recent order of the Regional Trial Court Branch denying the motion to dismiss filed by the Bacolod City government in the civil case filed against it on the implementation of the new Real Property Tax Code.
The case was filed by the Chamber of Real Estate Builder's Association and Subdivision Housing Developers Association-Negros Occidental.
