Old and new problems pose challenges to Panglao’s waste
management system
Only 55% of the total number of hotels, resorts, and inns on the
island report actual 8gures to the tourism o`ce. They have
cases of “outliers” or resorts that do not divulge data and fake
occupancy 8gures.
“If a resort has more than 300 rooms and they only divulge
5,000 guests in a year, you really won’t believe them, right? So
we don’t include the numbers,” he said. “If 8gures appear that
they’re not credible, we don’t include that in the 8nal data,” he
added.
