As the country celebrates National Women’s Month, the Municipality of Moalboal shines a spotlight on women’s dignity and safety through the implementation of Ordinance No. 003-2025, regulating adult entertainment centers in town. The measure underscores the LGU’s commitment to building a community where women and girls are free from exploitation and degrading portrayals. It also reinforces Moalboal’s vision of being a family-friendly, values-driven tourist destination.
The ordinance prohibits indecent and lewd shows, including performances involving nudity or sexual acts, and sets clear standards for the operation of adult-oriented establishments. By doing so, it helps create safer public spaces, protects minors, and promotes responsible business practices that respect women’s rights. The policy sends a clear message that economic activity should never come at the expense of human dignity—especially that of women and children.
Local leaders emphasize that this initiative is part of a broader effort to advance gender equality and inclusive development in Moalboal. They encourage residents, business owners, and community organizations to stand united in upholding respect, decency, and equality in all sectors of society. In this Women’s Month, Moalboal not only celebrates the contributions of women but also backs them with concrete policies that safeguard their welfare and honor their role in shaping the town’s future.
