MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0— Local food products unique to Antique, as well its nature destinations, are under the spotlight at the 2019 Philippine Harvest Antique, a Department of Tourism (DOT) initiative launched in Taguig City on Friday.<\/p>\n

Philippine Harvest is a trade fair that brings together the best of what each region around the country has to offer. For its seventh edition, Antique is the focus.<\/p>\n

“The province of Antique has a strong emerging tourist destination in Western Visayas. It has pristine beaches, majestic sceneries, unique adventures, exotic beaches and agricultural products derived from homegrown coconut, sugarcane, banana, cassava, and sweet potato,” DOT 6 (Western Visayas) Director Helen Catalbas said during its launch.<\/p>\n

The DOT is confident that with the aggressive representation of the local government, Antique’s name would be put in its proper place.<\/p>\n

“In agriculture, tourism, trade, culture, and environment sectors, you name it, Antique’s time has come,” Catalbas added.<\/p>\n

She bared that for 2020, DOT-6 is planning to focus on the promotion of lesser-explored provinces, such as Antique and Guimaras.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“I have committed to dedicate 2020 to Antique and Guimaras because all our local government units are already up there but these two provinces are still way below.<\/p>\n

They are among the smallest in the country,” Catalbas said.<\/p>\n
