image for 'Despacito' Boosts Puerto Rico's Economy

Just two months ago, Puerto Rico’s governor, Ricardo Rosselló, declared the country bankrupt in order to restructure a $70 billion debt.

However, reports reveal that the global smash "Despacito" by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee has aroused the interest of foreign tourists to know the place where the superstars were born.

According to daily Un Nuevo Dia, tourist interest in traveling to Puerto Rico increased 45 percent since the song began to play worldwide.

Just including the phrase, "this is how we do it down in Puerto Rico," and filming the music video in amazing locations certainly seems to have helped.

After learning the news, Luis Fonsi reacted on Instagram, writing: "What a joy it is to read this in international media.

Puerto Rico is the true protagonist of this song and this video.” He also thanked Yankee, Zuleyka Rivera (Miss Universe 2006) and director Carlos Perez of Elastic People.
