The National University of Singapore (NUS) Alumni Network Manila hosted a meaningful Sundowner Thanksgiving gathering, marking the ceremonial turnover of leadership from the outgoing Executive Committee (ExCo) to the incoming ExCo for the 2025-2026 term.<\/p>

The event was held from 5.00pm to 7.00pm at the Straight Up Rooftop Bar in SEDA Hotel BGC, Taguig City. The gathering brought together outgoing and incoming ExCo members, proposed faculty and school representatives, potential special committee heads, and key alumni actively involved in chapter activities.<\/p>

It served as a reflective moment to honour past achievements and a forward-looking celebration as the chapter embarked on a new journey. This intimate gathering brought together 18 alumni, representing eight faculties and schools, including Business, Computing, Design and Environment, Engineering, Law, Public Health, Public Policy, and Science.<\/p>

The event commenced at around 5.00pm with warm welcome remarks from outgoing chapter chair Mr Richard Tan (Public Policy \u201913). Mr Tan reflected on the chapter\u2019s origins and celebrated its remarkable achievements since its establishment in 2019. Following Mr. Tan\u2019s speech, Dr Venus Oliva Cloma-Rosales (Public Health \u201913), the incoming chapter chair, took the stage to outline her vision for the upcoming term. Affectionately known as Doc Ivy, Dr Cloma-Rosales shared her guiding principles to elevate the chapter\u2019s impact and engagement over the next two years. Joining Doc Ivy in the 2025-2026 ExCo are Patricia Villar-Yambing (Business \u201915) as Vice Chair, Jonas Estacio (Engineering \u201904) as Secretary, and Atty Jose Maria Buenagua (Law \u201921) as Treasurer. To ensure continuity and mentorship, Mr Richard Tan (Public Policy \u201913) will continue to serve as Chapter Adviser.<\/p>
