AN ACTION-PACKED 2022
THE year 2022 is probably one of the fastest paced years since the pandemic started. With a lot of things to catch up on and a lot of innovations coming out of the boxes, the year is marked by transitioning of activities from virtual to in-person. As hoped by everyone, a better normal is underway.
As a year in review, the PICE Iloilo Chapter has gone a long way. We now have a new president from the academe, Engr. Mary Earl Daryl Grio. And yours truly also earned a spot in the board of directors as the Secretary. I am truly honored for the trust the PICE has bestowed upon me.

The biggest challenge for all of us in the board was to also keep up with the demands of our members. Thus, we have exerted much effort to be more visible online with the launching of the new and improved PICE Iloilo Chapter website via piceiloilochapter.org
We also had several in-person activities such as the induction of members as well as the awarding of outstanding civil engineering graduates. We assisted communities affected by Tropical Depression Agaton which is quite bizarre given that it was during the Holy Week when it struck most of Western Visayas. Climate change is real, indeed.
We also embarked on holding the PICE Iloilo Fun Ride in Miagao wherein the proceeds were all provided to assist those who were affected by typhoon Paeng. Personally, it was a very activity-filled year for everyone. PICE Iloilo Chapter has come back, out of the screen and in full live action.
We also had better access in joining the 48th PICE National Convention and Technical Conference which was held in Bacolod City last November.
Anyways, I hope you read on 2022’s highlights for the PICE Iloilo Chapter community. We also have an incredible feature story fully generated by artificial intelligence which is truly captivating and inspiring looking forward to our future in civil engineering. Read on, dear readers.
