Promote safety and mototourism with one shot

The Motorcycle Development Program Participants Association (MDPPA) composed of the leading local motorcycle manufacturers (Honda. Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha) invites all riders to join their latest Photography Contest. The new contest has the theme: “Let’s explore and enjoy our wonderful world! My Motorcycle. My World!”

The contest was organized to promote motorcycle tourism (motourism) as the activity is gaining popularity all throughout the Southeast Asian region.

The Philippines has many destinations perfect for exploring by motorcycle with its many pristine landscapes, beautiful and serene coasts, jungles bursting with life and natural splendor. As we take pleasure in riding and discovering these locales, MDPPA hopes we can communicate the message of safety and encourage everyone to have this outlook everywhere, anytime.

It is with this idea that the MDPPA has started the contest. The top photo has a chance to win up to PhP25,000. The winning photo will also serve as MDPPA’s entry in the Federation of Asian Motorcycle Industries (FAMI) Photography Contest in Bali, Indonesia in September 2019 for a chance to win up to SG$4.000.
