Tomas Center for Conservation of Cultural Property and Environment.<br \/>\nThe said organization was behind the success of tourism hotspots such as Vigan, Bohol and Cebu, among others.<br \/>\n\u201cThe goal [of the cultural mapping] is to research and document the stories and memories of Angeles City and uncover tangible, intangible, natural and built resources,\u201d Nunag added.<br \/>\nIn the previous year, Acto already started the use of the brand \u201cAngeles City: I Like!\u201d and proposed it to Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan, other city officials, representatives from the Research, Education and Institutional Development (REID) Foundation and city stakeholders.<br \/>\nThe slogan was taken from \u201cAngeles-City-I-Like-Angeles-City-I-Love\u201d offered by one of the participants in the Branding Workshop held in February 2011.<br \/>\nNunag also explained how \u201cAngeles City: I Like!\u201d is an appropriate brand name for the city.<br \/>\n\u201c\u2018Like\u2019 is said to be the modern equivalent of love,\u201d shares Nunag, who was appointed City Tourism Officer in September 2011.<br \/>\n\u201cInspired by the Facebook phenomenon of 500 million users who click three billion Facebook likes a day, \u2018Like\u2019 is a way to give positive feedback,\u201d she said.<br \/>\n\u201c\u2018Like\u2019 is to connect with things you care about.  Most importantly, \u2018I Like\u2019 is a first aid treatment, a \u2018modern\u2019 or digital tool to counter the unlikeable image of Angeles City as seen in top pages of internet search engines,\u201d Nunag explained.<br \/>\nFor his part, Pamintuan lauded the efforts of Acto in coming up with a new brand and hopes that the Angele\u00f1os and Kapampangans would support it.<br \/>\n\u201cAlong with the Branding Campaign and the revamped tourism activities for 2012, there is finally something that tourists and Angele\u00f1os themselves can look forward to in the city,\u201d the mayor said.<br \/>\n\u201cWe would like to leave a positive image for the city, and through the Acto and the support of our fellow Kapampangans, we would be able to do it,\u201d Pamintuan added.<br \/>\nRecently, Pamintuan expressed his support to Congressman Carmelo \u201cTarzan\u201d Lazatin\u2019s proposal to erect a world-class Disneyland Theme Park at the Clark Freeport Zone.<br \/>\nHe said the establishment of the said theme park at Clark would be beneficial to neighboring towns and cities in terms of tourism, employment and business.<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.sunstar.com.ph\/pampanga\/local-news\/2012\/04\/30\/angeles-city-promotes-new-tourism-brand-219009<\/p>\n<p>Camping is one of the popular outdoor activities that take place in Clearwater Resort which is generally regarded as one of the best hotels in Clark Philippines.
