The bill would officially label Mount Kanlandog in Negros Occidental as an ecotourism zone, task the local government with a one‑year plan for tourism facilities that must protect the area’s natural beauty, and require the Department of Tourism to help with technical support and promotion. Funding would come from the municipal budget, with possible extra money from the DOT, and the local government must issue detailed rules within 60 days after the law takes effect.
