00:00There's a new landmark in Talisay City, Negros Occidental, and it sets a new world
00:05record for being the largest chicken-themed structure on Earth.
00:09Campo Estohan Highland Resort owner Ricardo Tan says Monday, October 14, his newly finished
00:14Rooster Hotel has been certified by Guinness as the largest of its kind in the world.
00:19The structure stands 115 feet tall and houses 15 rooms.
00:23The hotel will open on Saturday, October 19.
00:26Tan says his entry beat some 24,000 other applicants for the distinction.
00:31He says the monumental rooster is meant to honor Negros Occidental's fowl breeders,
00:36who provided jobs to many locals when the sugar industry declined in the 1980s.
00:41Talisay Mayor Neil Lizares III says the new landmark will serve as a symbol of the city's
00:46growth and potential.
00:48Other local officials say they look forward to the tourism boost the gigantic rooster
00:52will bring.
