BIZ BUZZ: Business as usual in Baguio–MVP
Much has been going on lately in the country’s summer capital.
We’re talking about the transitioning of Camp John Hay properties in Baguio City, and with the MVP Group coming in as a strategic investor.
Landco Pacific Corp., the hospitality subsidiary of Metro Pacific Investments Corp., has committed to the interim management of The Manor and Forest Lodge at Camp John Hay, including the CAP-John Hay Trade and Cultural Center.
In a statement on Monday, MPIC chair Manuel V. Pangilinan said they would be “happy to assist” the Bases Conversion and Development Authority during the tense transition period.
“We have assembled a highly capable team to make sure that these legacy properties are protected and enhanced as cornerstones of Baguio history and tourism,” Pangilinan noted.
“Staff and guests need not worry,” the billionaire said on the same day that Camp John Hay was locked down, stranding guests and employees.
This comes as an interesting development, with Pangilinan keen on Baguio’s tourist hot spot for his new venture. Let’s see what happens next!
