United Architects of the Philippines 40th National Convention 9-12 April 2014 22 SMX Convention Center Metro Manila It is my distinct pleasure to extend my most cordial felicitations to the general membership, participants, organizers, exhibitors and sponsors of the 40th UAP National Convention and Conex 2014 to be held on April 10-12, 2014 with the theme: “O.N.E.: Organization-movers. Nation-builders. Earth-keepers.” Our mutual commitment to the organization and with our individual capabilities as exceptional leaders are the reason why we always meet in this Annual Convention and I believe, will always be the greatest attributes that would bring our community to continuing excellence and at the same time provide the entire organization the boost of encouragement to move on despite the many challenges we face. On this convention, we look forward, with genuine enthusiasm, to collaborate with one another to make this UAP-IAPOA an even better place for all stakeholders – our fellow professionals, our allied professionals, our partners in the construction industry and our future successors. It is my fervent hope that what we have learned and shared with each other during the convention will yield positive results and bring about concrete benefits to the architecture profession.
