Good Day,
I would like to request for the international and local tourists visiting Malaybalay, Bukidnon for the year 2019-2020. The reason for this request is for our business research that is conducted to compare the market size of the hotels, resorts, inns, and tourist spots. Our professor advised us to use the tourists' arrivals to compare and contrast the market share. Hoping for understanding and consideration in this matter. Thank you so much.
