The Civil Engineers for Leni (CE4L) hosted the "Lugaw ng Kaalaman (LK)" CE Webtalks as their contribution to the campaign for VP Leni Robredo as president and Sen. Kiko Pangilinan for vice president in the Philippine national election in May 2022. The LK project actually targetted civil engineering students and young civil engineers to influence them to become responsible civil engineers and lead them to understand that "politics" and "engineering" are dependent; that is, good governance and leaders with integrity and qualification are key components towards achieving a sustainable infrastructure and built environment where civil engineers are the main actors. There were some negative reactions from some people and trolls that "we should not use our profession in politics." Really? When in fact the major agency where you can find the biggest corruption are agencies engaged in infrastructures. And politics is the major reason why corruption in infrastructure projects is rampant both in local and national levels.
The LK webtalks project is addressed to all civil engineers in government, private practice and academe - whether you support pink, blue, red, green, yellow or any color. Only the corrupt and the irresponsible will not support our efforts to educate our students and young civil engineers to be responsible and ethical professionals.
The CE4L Lugaw ng Kaalaman Webtalks consist of ten topics plus one web Talk Show on OFW engineers. The topics are varied - safe design of houses, buildings and bridges, sustainable design vs wind, flood, earthquake and geotehcnical hazards, environmental protection and waste maanagement, sustainable transportation and responsible engineers in government.
