via ABS-CBN News, 27 April 2019: Mandating the use of a local pre-hispanic script in Boracay.
Amid a proliferation of foreign-language signs, ancient script Baybayin is set to take the spotlight on world-renowned beach paradise Boracay.
Local officials of Malay, Aklan has taken action to revive the Philippine pre-hispanic writing system, requiring the use of Baybayin as the “main text” for signages on business establishments and government offices on the island.
Through Executive Order No. 10, the local government of Malay, which has jurisdiction over the island, mandated the use of Baybayin for signages as part of its “tropical design” guidelines.
“Main text must be written in Baybayin (with English subtitle and other languages, as the case may be),” read the order dated March 19, 2019 and recently signed by Acting Malay Mayor Abram Sualog.

The signs should have a kudlit variant developed by tattoo artists in Boracay over the last few decades.
