The Davao Oriental State University (DORSU) and Mati City have signed a five-year memorandum of agreement (MOA) to strengthen halal tourism and hospitality services in the city.

The agreement, signed Monday, entrusts DORSU’s Center for Tourism Information, Education, and Communication (CTIEC) to provide technical expertise and educational support to Mati’s City Tourism and Promotions Office.

Mayor Michelle Rabat emphasized the partnership’s role in positioning Mati City as a model for sustainable and inclusive tourism in Mindanao.

“Together, we aim to elevate Mati City as a model for sustainable and halal tourism, creating opportunities for economic growth while celebrating our diverse heritage,” she said.

The partnership will focus on programs promoting halal tourism, aligned with the city’s halal ordinance, to ensure respect for Muslim beliefs and traditions.

DORSU’s involvement includes providing technical assistance, conducting research, and leading capacity-building initiatives. The City Tourism and Promotions Office has pledged to ensure the projects’ effective implementation.

“This collaboration prioritizes inclusivity in tourism policies while strengthening local capacities in hospitality services,” Rabat added.

The MOA underscores Mati’s dedication to fostering economic growth while addressing the cultural and religious needs of its diverse communities. (PNA)
