"This will promote tourism and surfing is one of the activities that will boost our tourism aside from our history. It will invite surfers who will tell everyone about our place," Kwan said of the event that intends to raise the level of surfing and upskill national athletes. "The more competitions and the more people who have joined the sport through pleasure and enjoyment, the more people and communities that benefit," he said, adding that the sport is ideal for provinces like Eastern Samar which hosts two national surfing competitions.
"We have been giving our full support to surf events such as this. It is only here in Eastern Samar that the prizes for both men's and women's divisions for surfing are equal," he said.
