Manila Standard
Monday, August 31, 1998
In grateful recognition for her selfless dedication and exemplary contribution in uplifting the overall quality of the various sectors of the travel and tourism industry, Skal Club 481 on Friday night awarded Philippine Airlines Regional Vice President/General Manager for Philippines and Guam Mila Limgenco the Special Skal Citation Travel Tourism Award during the 12th Annual Skal Awards and Fellowship Night held at The Rigodon Ballroom of The Peninsula Manila.
Mila Limgenco, a civic-minded and low key individual was being given special recognition for her invaluable role in the development of tourist destinations in the Philippines.
As President of Women in Travel for an unprecedented four terms, she has spearheaded various training programs aimed at upgrading tourism skills of front liners and resort managers/owners in Boracay and Palawan in cooperation with the Department of Tourism and the local government of Aklan.
With the decline in international travel in 1997, she has established, without fuss or fanfare, tourism exchanges between Brunei, Xiamen and the Philippines, creating renewed interest in Asian countries as exciting and affordable alternative tourist destination. SEDJ
