Executive Director Olivia Palala of DFA Office of ASEAN Affairs supported claims why Cebu City was named as an ASEAN City of Culture.

“From the historic Magellan’s cross planted in the heart of the city, to the city’s magnificent hotels, pristine beaches and diving spots, colorful religious and tourist festivals and vibrant industries—you name it, Cebu has it,” she said.
