They have considered these ASEAN MICE Venue Standards as a reference to develop and enhance the capacity and competitiveness of MICE entrepreneurs in serving both the organizers and visitors in a professional way. There are assessment guidelines for the members of the National Assessment Committee for them to inspect, audit, and assess ASEAN MICE Venues.
The country’s Director of the Office of Tourism Standards and Regulation, Maria Rica C. Bueno informed the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino’s General Manager, Mr. Anders Hallden, of the said award.
