Greetings!

I received your reply and I am willing to provide details regarding my thesis study in order to get the information I am requesting.

I am Jonaliza L. Borbe, a 5th year BS Architecture student of the University of Nueva Caceres in Naga City, Camarines Sur. As one of the final requirements before getting my bachelor’s degree, I have to conduct an architectural thesis requiring us to submit a research book during the first semester and a compilation of architectural drawings during the second semester.

My thesis proposal is Dakit-Sulog: Camaligan Cultural Heritage District, on which I plan to situate at the Municipality of Camaligan, Camarines Sur.

One of the key contents for my thesis proposal is the research methodology, which requires several demographics of the potential occupants of the project. Since my study relates to tourism, may I ask your good office for assistance in providing the following data for my thesis:

1.  Data on Tourist Arrivals (foreign and local) in Bicol Region particularly in Camarines Sur from 2019-2022

Rest assured that the aforementioned data will be strictly used for academic purposes only. Your cooperation would be of great help in making my thesis a success. Should you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me – 09777460425 / jonaliza.borbe@unc.edu.ph . Thank you very much!
