1st SocSkSarGen CONBEX opens at KCC Mall
The United Architects of the Philippines- Socsksargen Chapter opened yesterday (Feb 22) the 1st Socsksargen CONBEX (Construction & Building Exhibit) at the atrium of the KCC Mall of Gensan as part of its commitment to join the the 2008 Kalilangan Festival.
Running until the 24th (Sunday), the exhibit (according to its flyer) “aims to update professionals and stakeholders of the contruction industry on information on the latest trends in technologies, services, materials, products, buildings system and solutions for the entire construction industry”. (whew!)

I must say however the products & services featured really offer valuable info for people who are planning to build or renovate their homes. Even Mayor Jun Acharon who inaugurated the event was impressed. Well, the people of Gensan only has the UAP to thank for especially its president, Architect Marissa Ober. As for myself and my friends from the CPIO, we are grateful to Architect Cecille Dinopol-Dellosa for the free lunch afterwards.
Good work guys!
