SA dami ng mga imprastrakturang nais isakatuparan ng administrasyon, higit na angkop makatuwang ng pamahalaan ang mga inhinyerong Pinoy.
Sa pagdalo bilang panauhing pandangal sa ginanap na 2024 PICE Midyear Convention, International Engineering Expo, at Technical Conference na ginanap sa SMX Convention Center sa Pasay City, hinikayat ni House Speaker Martin Romualdez ang mga Pinoy civil engineers na maging bahagi at katuwang ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. sa pagsasakatuparan ng malalaking infrastructure projects sa bansa.
“In ensuring a better future for Filipinos, we must also focus on inclusivity and accessibility. The infrastructure we build must be designed to meet the needs of all citizens, including those in underserved and remote areas,” wika ni Romualdez sa mga miyembro ng 87-year-old organization.
“By bridging gaps and connecting communities, we pave the way for equal opportunities and sustainable development. Our legislative efforts aim to support these initiatives, ensuring that no Filipino is left behind as we move forward,” mensahe ng lider ng Kamara sa nasa 5,000 Pinoy civil engineers na dumalo sa nasabing pagtitipon.
Para kay Romualdez, mas abot-kamay ang pag-unlad kung mag-aambag ang mga inhinyerong Pinoy sa landas na tinatahak ng administrasyon kung saan ang bawat mamamayan ay may access sa “quality infrastructure, education, and opportunities.”
“The future we envision for the Philippines is one where every Filipino has access to quality infrastructure, education, and opportunities. It is a future where our engineering sector continues to thrive, driven by innovation, resilience, and a commitment to excellence,” hirit ng Leyte solon.
“The bridges you build, the roads you pave, and the buildings you construct are not just structures of concrete and steel; they are symbols of our collective aspirations and the foundation of our future,” aniya pa.
Binigyan-diin din niya ang tinawag niyang “nation-building” na posible lang kung magtutulungan ang lahat sektor ng lipunan.
“Through your expertise, you ensure that our communities are resilient, our economy is robust, and our nation is prepared to face the challenges of the 21st century. Your role in nation-building extends beyond the physical structures you create,” ani Romualdez.
“You are pivotal in fostering a culture of innovation and excellence, inspiring the next generation of engineers to dream bigger and reach higher.”
Samantala, tiniyak ni Romualdez na suportado ng Kamara ang hanay ng mga inhinyero.
“The House remains steadfast in its commitment to support the engineering profession and industry through robust legislation and effective governance. Let us continue to work together, innovate, and build a better Philippines for future generations,” garantiya ng House Speaker.
“I would like to commend each and every one of you for your unwavering dedication and contributions to the field of engineering. Your efforts are the backbone of our nation’s development, and your innovations pave the way for a brighter, more sustainable future.”
