"What we are trying to attach to the APTM is the MICE because a lot of hotels now have a very good ballroom to speak with. We are trying to dovetail meetings, we have started inviting tour operators that handle meetings in the country," she added. APTM, slated June 21 to 22 at the SMX Convention Center, is the Philippines' bigg
