31 Davao Region civil engineers conferred ASEAN Engineer title in Indonesia
Members of the Philippine Institute of Civil Engineers–Davao Region received the regional professional recognition at a ceremony in Bandung.
Thirty-one civil engineers from the Davao Region chapter of the Philippine Institute of Civil Engineers (PICE) have been conferred the ASEAN Engineer title, according to Mindanao Times. The recognition was given during the ASEAN Engineer Conferment Ceremony in Bandung, Indonesia.
The title is granted through the ASEAN Engineering Register (AER), which recognises engineering professionals who meet set standards of competence, experience and ethical practice. The register is also meant to support professional mobility and collaboration among engineers across Southeast Asia.
The conferred engineers are Allan Parone, Dr. Applegen Joyo, Arturo Longyapon, Cecilio de Guzman, Claire Angelica Balaye, Darwin Santos, Dea Cariaga, Edward Genn Jaravata, Edwin Moliva, Ester Marian Balolot, Ferdinand Trasmil, Ferrose Clarion, Generose Parone, Gloria Cabillas, Hector Magno, Jan Arvin Calla, Jan Patrick Lozano, Jason Frank Ramos, Jefferson Kevin Lerio, Jeroneil Torcende, Joemari King, Kevin Marc Babate, Lazaro Rioferio, Mary Ann Oani, Marialita Amper, Moises Fortolazo, Noel Villacampa, Noven John Jusayan III, Roderick Tecson, Wilfredo Balaye and Yasmin Magtabog.
According to the report, PICE Davao Region considers the number of conferees a significant accomplishment for its members and a sign of the growing presence of Filipino civil engineers in the regional engineering community. The organisation said international recognition can open opportunities for local engineers to broaden their careers, share technical knowledge and work on projects beyond the Philippines.
The chapter said it continues to encourage higher professional standards among its members through technical seminars, specialisation programmes and capacity-building activities.
Why it matters for Davao
The recognition gives a group of Davao Region civil engineers a credential meant to support professional mobility and collaboration across ASEAN, which PICE says can widen their opportunities to work and share expertise beyond the Philippines.
