Tourism helps Camarines Sur

Camarines Sur province in Bicol region has transformed from a bucolic and largely agricultural province into a prime tourism and investment destination over the past six years.
The province, which placed 39th in terms of revenue with only PhP655 million in 2004, is now the 10th richest province in the Philippines after doubling its 2004 revenue.  This was credited to the entrepreneurial skills of Governor Lray Villafuerte who developed the CamSur Watersports Complex (CWC), which is now a world famous water sports destination.
