Architect Jose B. Abesamis AR 1964
Civil / Structural Designer
Fluor Canada
Architect
Jose B. Abesamis graduated from the Mapúa Institute of Technology
with a degree of Bachelor of Science in Architecture in 1964.
He passed the board examiniation on the same year. In the early
70's, he accomplished what he aspired for. He was able to form
and manage a successful architectural and construction company.
Within a year, Jose, his wife and kids left the country for
good.
It was
here that Jose experienced jobs he never dreamed of doing. It
was all hard work, an eye-opener for those who needed a splash
of harsh cold reality in the face. Still, even as life proved
to be full of measly paid entry level drafting work and part
time jobs, Jose's focus was left intact. It was then that Jose
and his wife decided to try something else. His knowledge went
from building materials and on to edible ingredients. The embodiment
of his dream had shifted into a thriving bakery cafe business,
which prepared one of the tastiest cakes and luscious breads
around.
Congratulations

Open Letter to NAMA Philippines

There
is a gathering storm right here in North America. Subdued may
we be, NAMA chapters from both Canada and the U.S. have this
popular consensus that a name change from Mapúa Institute
of Technology to Malayan Colleges should
be challenged at every conceivable quarter.
Likewise,
we echo the concerns and sentiments of NAMA British Columbia
regarding this issue. At the end of this letter, various means
of contact with our Chapter are mentioned. Feel free to choose
the ones most expedient and uncomplicated from your end. We,
