MB Daily News Update: Manila, Boracay among world’s best

Manila was included in the Time Out list of world’s best cities, while rejuvenated Boracay Island was recognized as one of the world’s best places in 2022.

These recognitions augur well with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s plan to boost Philippine tourism, citing the progress made by such places as Singapore, Thailand and Hawaii in the same industry.

Filipina nurse May Parson was awarded with the prestigious George Cross medal from Queen Elizabeth II in the United Kingdom.

The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) announced the lifting of the moratorium on the nursing education programs in the country, which had previously been inundated with 200,000 graduates who end up with no jobs, among other reasons.

These are among the top stories this Wednesday afternoon, July 13, 2022.
