message 27-30 April 2011 | SMX Convention Center, Pasay City Teresita R. Manzala Chair Share: Status Photo Link Video Professional Regulation Commission My warm greetings to the United Architects of the Philippines (UAP) on the occasion of your 37th National Convention. The UAP’s espousal of the theme “Reinventing S.O.A.: ServiceOriented Architecture” demonstrates the UAP’s holistic approach to the role of architecture in the community. This approach acknowledges the fact that our architecture performs multidimensional functions amid the complexity of daily life in the 21st century. It is in cognizance of this fact that the UAP has chosen to tackle such timely subthemes as enterprise, vernacular and virtual architecture. The cities of the future will be designed with these subthemes in mind and with the end in view that all architecture should ultimately be self complete, service-oriented structures that serve every conceivable human need. I commend the UAP for taking this visionary orientation in this Convention. I urge all UAP members to participate with enthusiasm in the lively discussions, exchanges of valuable information and exhibitions that promise to make this convention a highlight of the UAP’s long history as an accredited professional organization of architects. May you have a fruitful and productive output in this Convention and in your future endeavors. 8 | About Us | Contact | Blog | Resources | Help | Terms | Privacy 37th UAP National Convention © 2011
