Negros
Occidental Section Chartered
The
Philippine Institute of Architects (PIA) Visayas District is expanding, as it
continues to do the leg work in chartering more sections in Negros Occidental,
Negros Oriental, Bohol, and Samar-Leyte.
The
efforts of the Visayas District Director for the Fiscal Year 2014-2015, Arch.
Norberto V. Uy in collaboration with former District Director Arch. Ramon Nilo
Vios, Jr., College of Fellow - Arch. Eric C. Nacorda and other key individuals,
paved the way to finally charter the Negros Occidental Section with Cebu
Section as its sponsor. It was approved by the National Board through
Board Resolution No. 009 - Series of 2014 last June 28, 2014, with Arch.
Norberto Uy presenting all documents in his capacity as the Visayas District
Director and Arch. Jimson Ong acting as the traditional sponsor in his capacity
as the Cebu Section President, altogether a milestone achievement for the
Fiscal Year 2014-2015.
The
Negros Occidental Section Executive Board has been officially inducted during
the 82nd PIA National Convention held in Basco, Batanes last February 26-March
2, 2015.

Bohol
Section Oathtaking for Corporate Members: PIA Visayas Moving Forward
In
continuation of these efforts, new corporate members from Bohol shall take
their Oath this coming 28th (Saturday) March 2015 in Tagbilaran City. The
roster on this Oath Taking Ceremony shall be submitted to the PIA National
Board for further review to charter Bohol as a new PIA Section to be
co-sponsored by the Negros Occidental and Cebu Sections.
Moreover,
the Samar-Leyte areas also have another batch of architects who shall be part
of the roster of new corporate members for the forthcoming new Samar-Leyte
Section, among the lined up new Sections which the Visayas District shall help
get chartered in the coming months.
With
these developments, we see the Visayas District to be a dynamic contribution to
the growth of the Philippine Institute of Architects in the region.
All PIA
members are encouraged to support the chartering of these new Sections in the
Visayas.
♫ Come
now! Let's all be united for the progress of our native land, as brother
architects we must not forget to enhance the progress of our land! ♫
