message “Reinventing S.O.A.: Service-Oriented Architecture” Armando N. Allí, FUAP, apec architect Acting Chair Share: Status Photo Link Video Professional Regulatory Board of Architecture (PRBoA) Our warmest greetings to you all! I, as PRBoA Chair and the two (2) Members of the PRBoA, namely Architect (Ar) Angeline T. Chua Chiaco and Ar Marietta B. Segovia, congratulate the United Architects of the Philippines (UAP), the duly integrated and accredited professional organization of architects (IAPOA) under Sec. 40 of Republic Act No. 9266, otherwise known as the Architecture Act of 2004, on the occasion of its 37th National Convention, under the theme “Reinventing S.O.A: ServiceOriented Architecture.” These felicitations go to all the UAP Members, some of whom are the most recognizable names in the profession and many of whom have helped to shape both the UAP and the profession into what it is today. Special mention goes to the UAP National President, Ar Ramon S. Mendoza, FUAP, to the Executive Director for Convention and Assemblies, Ar Roger T. Ong, UAP, and to the 37th National Convention Director, Ar Lora B. Rivera, FUAP, to all the UAP members in attendance, to the honored Guests and to the loyal friends and supporters of the UAP. It is the PRBoA’s express wish that many areas of cooperation between the PRBoA and UAP shall continue to flourish and that these are kept evolving and moving forward in order to help attain our shared primary goal of the full implementation and enforcement of R.A. No. 9266, a valid and subsisting law, its 2004 implementing rules and regulations (IRR), the pertinent PRBoA Resolutions and derivative regulations, all of which are in full effect. It is also the added wish of the PRBoA that it is able to receive the full, unqualified and continuing support of all registered and licensed Architects (RLAs) on the current and future PRBoA initiatives toward this end, in light of the many local and international developments on several fronts, all of which directly impact the architectural profession and the practice of the approximately 27,000 Philippine-registered architects (RAs) situated all over the world (the last 6,000 of whom were registered by the incumbent PRBoA). For the past several decades, the services of the Filipino Architect have been in very high demand, a signal honor bestowed upon them, in recognition of their quality service and the premium value attached to their work. The PRBoA continues to hope that these matters may also be similarly appreciated on a progressive basis, by the Philippine market for professional architectural services and by the Philippine government itself (at all its levels). Again, the PRBoA extends its felicitations and wishes of continuing success for the UAP and all its members in their worthy endeavors, their guests and loved ones, and to all of you in attendance today! May the Lord bless us all and the resurgent architecture profession as well! Mabuhay po kayong lahat! Mabuhay ang mga Arkitektong Pilipino!!! 37th UAP National Convention © 2011 About Us | Contact | Blog | Resources | Help | Terms | Privacy | 11
