| Summary: | PENANGITES are in for an exciting time. Even before the proposed "tiger ecopark"
can take off, the Island is
already echoing with roars heard right across the nation. Some of them are loud and desperate enough, like
that of a hungry tiger, which could send shivers down the spine. All this in the name of tourism.

and endall of tourism, often at the expense of the locals. |
