Resort and Spa. It is said that one of the incomes in
Bangbang is the resort. Tourist comes and goes every
day which was the reason why there are people build
their own sari-sari store alongside the resort. Also,
the Grand Mall in Cordova has a big impact on their
lives. Because it is said that most of the employees
are the people living in that certain barangay. The
total percentage rate of the employee in Bang-bang
growing rapidly because they are the main priority.

They also accommodate special events like weddings,
baptismal, reunion, parties and many more. The entrance is
only P 75.00 and you can enjoy swimming all day.

lacking. We came up by our group members that they must have at least
a souvenir shop because the place has a big impact in tourism industry.
III. SYNTHESIS

generate income in many ways. So that’s why we want to build a
souvenir shop inside the Villa Asella Garden Resort and Spa. At least the
tourist can buy something and they can proud to say that they once
visited this kind of place.
 
b. Conclusion
We know that it is not easy to propose a proposal for any kind. But we
hope that the barangay chairman and the resident of Bang-bang must at
least have to look at what is good and what are other ways to have an
income. To build a souvenir shop can help people to be employed and to
have at least a work even in that small thing.

CORDOVA CEBU
 SITUATION ANALYSIS
Site Background:
Day-as Mangroves – Boardwalk was once a part of Opon, now called Lapu-
Lapu City and it was called Day-as. The eco-tourism efforts of Cordova town on
Mactan Island received a boost with the implementation of the multi million peso
Mangrove Propagation & Information Center at its 273 hectare mangrove area in
Barangay Day-as. The municipality has been chosen as the site of the first
mangrove center in the Visayas by the Metro Pacific Investment Corp. (MPIC)
Foundation under its Shore It Up program. The center completes the nationwide
position of Shore It Up in helping to rescue, restore, and revive the mangroves.
Its first attempt secedes from Mother town Opon was in 1863. Padre Simon
Aguire, the parish priest of Opon at that time, encourage the residents of Day-as
headed by Claudio Dico to send a resolution for the establishment of Day-as as a
Municipality was granted and the new establishment town was name Cordova
derived after a city in Spain. Day-as remained barrio this time it is a part of
Cordova.
LANTAW NATIVE FLOATING RESTAURANTS
The 10,000 Roses Cafe is a tourist attraction and cafe located in
Day-as Cordova Cebu that has grown popular in recent years. It features
two patches of artificial LED roses that light up from dusk till night. In
the contrary, you might think, night time is the prettiest time for the
roses but the worst time for photos. During the night there are lots of
people in the area. This makes it really hard to take good photos. At the
edge of the property is the cafe, and beyond that is already the ocean
with a city view across it.

Casa Rugina Function Hall and Resort

Casa Rugina has a very affordable entrance fee and a family friendly
resort. There are 48,483 people who checked in here and still counting.
They handle different types of social gatherings and weddings. And
they provide the perfect location or environment that creates a program
with entertainment that is always appropriate and tasteful.

II. Detailed Research
a. Demographic Profile
-According to the 2015 Census, the age group with the highest population in
Day-as is 5 to 9, with 448 individuals. Conversely, the age group with the
lowest population is 75-79, with 31 individuals. The population of Day-as
grew from 1,724 in 1990 to 4,241 in 2015, an increase of 2,517 people.
The latest census figures in 2015 denote positive growth rate of 3.08%, or
an increase of 624 people, from the previous population of 3,617 in 2010.

b. Existing Resources
Boardwalk, Lantaw Floating Native Restaurant, 10,000 Roses and Casa
Rugina
When the boardwalk is finished renovating and the 10,000 Roses will be
added more lights and twists, They can gain more income to help the
community and to improve their barangay. The pedicab drivers can also
get their income from it by transporting tourist who wants to visit.
c. Existing Activities
They can do activities like running to exercise to be healthy,
swimming, And also sightseeing to reduce their stress. They can also
do picture taking so they can make a memorable moments. And also
Bonding to strengthen their bond to each other.
d. Existing Facilities
The existing facilities in the barangay is the boardwalk, 10,000
roses, Lantaw Native Floating Restaurant and Casa Rugina but sad
to say. The boardwalk has been damaged because there was no one
maintaining it. That’s why we conduct a research on how to maintain
attraction of the area. But The 10,000 Roses still there are few tourist
who visits there but the Lantaw floating restaurant has still many
people who goes there to have their romantic dinner experience. The
Casa Rugina has many guests most specially during weekends.
III. Synthesis
a. Finding and Observation
We found out that Boardwalk is very nice
attraction ,they develop their mangrove into a
boardwalk and it will be known to the tourist. As
we go to their barangay we observed that their
boardwalk is already damage. But they managed
to make another tourist attractions and it is the
10,000 Roses it makes the Day-as Cordova
become popular again.
b. Conclusion
Indeed, it was not easy for us to cover this kind of business proposal.
We need to find a lot of time to do this. Some of us has a conflict in
time, and especially when it comes to schedule availability. We strive
hard to finish this business proposal as much as possible. During our
survey to the local community in the Day-as, we encountered
different types of people but we manage to understand them because
as a future hotelier it is our Job to understand people. But most of them
cooperates especially there barangay officials.
To come up this proposal it really need some time to know all about
Barangay Day-as. And by the help of their barangay officials and other
residence which is very kind and generous in giving us knowledge and
information about their barangay. By making this proposal, we learned
how to sacrifice, cooperate and be matured to ourselves. The hard part
of us is all about the “Costing and Fund”, where not familiar about that.
When money really involves, it is hard for us to budget.
