The Unforgettable 12th ASEAN Summit

A month has almost passed since Cebu took the responsibility of hosting the 12th Summit of the Association of Southeast Asian Nation (ASEAN) yet many Filipinos are still talking about it to this day.

Not a few have said that the holding of the Summit in our country proves that as long as we all put our hearts together, Filipinos can achieve success beyond expactations.

As emphasized by Manny Osmeña, owner of Hilton Cebu Resort and Spa, the recently concluded ASEAN Summit held in Cebu tells us three things: one, it proves that as long as we all put our hearts together, we can do it.


Two, it gave us the opportunity to show the world what the Philippines can do as well as it also gave us the chance to showcase to the world our country and our people. Three, with the success of the peaceful Summit, the amount of interest in investments and interest to visit the Philippines is unquantifiable. Businessmen and tourists, who would not normally consider Cebu or the Philippines as a destination, will now have us in their minds as a choice.
