Pasalubong Center

The Regional Development Council (RDC) is pushing for the


setting up of a “pasalubong” (souvenir) center inside the pre-
departure area of the Daniel Z. Romualdez Airport
here.Department of Tourism Eastern Visayas Regional
Director Karina Rosa Tiopes, chair of RDC's economic
development committee, said the council approved the
resolution during its meeting on June 23 and a copy will be
forwarded to the Civil Aviation Authority of the
Philippines.Tiopes noticed the "pasalubong" centers are near
the check-in counters of the airport where passengers are
either lining up for check-in and baggage drop or hurrying to
enter the pre-departure area."The relocation of 'pasalubong'
centers will allow local micro, small and medium enterprises
(MSMEs) selling souvenir items to better serve more
passengers and to help the local businesses recuperate from
the ill effects of pandemic," Tiopes added.
