Today, June 12, 2026, we proudly celebrate Philippine Independence Day—a historic reminder of the courage, unity, and patriotism of the Filipinos who fought and sacrificed for the freedom we enjoy today.

May this day inspire us to honor their legacy by valuing our freedom, embracing our responsibilities as citizens, and working together toward a stronger and more progressive nation.

Let us continue to take pride in our history, uphold the ideals of liberty, and serve our country with integrity, compassion, and love.🇵🇭

The Society of Tourism Management Officers proudly extended their ushering assistance to the foreign guests, national delegates, industry professionals, and university representatives who attended the Fulbright Philippines’ Nuclear Workforce Educational Forum: A U.S.-Philippines Exchange of Ideas.

As future tourism and hospitality professionals, our officers demonstrated excellence in service, professionalism, and hospitality by ensuring a warm welcome and seamless experience for all participants throughout the event. This opportunity allowed our student leaders to showcase the values of tourism management while engaging in a meaningful international and academic exchange.

We are honored to be part of an event that fosters collaboration, learning, and innovation between the United States and the Philippines. Thank you to Fulbright Philippines, CGPP Associate Professor, Dean Sonia F. Pimentel and to our CTHM OIC Dean Associate Professor Thomas Ronerick Jao for allowing us to contribute to the success of this remarkable forum.
