Cesar Aljama, uap The United Architects of the Philippines Laguna Chapter, headed by President Ar. Joven Guevarra, paid a courtesy visit to Calamba City Mayor Justin Marc Chipeco and City Building Official Engr. Joselito Guevarra, last September 11, 2018 to discuss the implementation of the Architectural Permit in the city. Both of them were receptive to the idea. In fact, Hon. Justin Marc SB. Chipeco even told us that he would be looking for architects to design various infrastructure projects for the city to which we, as a chapter, readily replied that we would be willing to take the work. Incidentally, Engr. Joselito Guevarra is presently the President of the Philippine Association of Building Officials (PABO), and he is willing to discuss the matter of the implementation of the Architectural Permit in the days to come. At the moment, he is preoccupied with the implementation of the one-stop-shop for building permits wherein the permits are supposed to be approved and released in 5 days time. Promote the architectural profession. Protect the architect. Fight illegal practice. A serious discussion of UAP Laguna Chapter Architects with Engr.
