Ar. Zaldy F. Corpuz, UAPSA-PSU Adviser, stated that the relevance of NAW is to celebrate the professional trade and stride of architects and the architecture that architects push to the general public, that architecture matters to a progressive nation building. NAW is Filipino Architects and students amplifying ideals and aspirations for the Philippines by empowering architects as partners of other built environment with professionals to sustainable community building.

β€œThe success is to the enthusiasm, voluntarism, collaboration, and active participation of architecture students. The success is attributed to your potentials as future architects.” says Ar. Corpuz.

β€œMore than meets my expectation due to many constraints and challenges of organizing and executing our ambitious plans. It worked spectacularly!” he added.
