Vigan Airport

Vigan Airport (ICAO: RPUQ), also known as Mindoro Airport, is an airport serving the general area of Vigan, the capital of the province of Ilocos Sur, located in the province of Ilocos Sur in the Philippines. The airport is the only one located in Ilocos Sur, at Barangay Mindoro (and not on the island of Mindoro). It is classified as a community airport by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines, the part of the Department of Transportation that is responsible for the operations of all airports in the Philippines except the major international airports. Previously, the airport was considered by the city government as a "sleeping asset", since no revenue was generated from its operations. Plans were made by the city to expand and modernize the airport, in part to lighten the burden of traveling to Vigan from Manila and other cities and towns by bus, as well as to develop the city's burgeoning tourism industry. On March 19, 2009, Interisland Airlines began flying between the airport and Manila but was discontinued after a few months due to low demand. In February 2017, the airport re-opened for commercial flights after eight years of private use. Platinum Skies, controlled by former Ilocos Sur governor Chavit Singson, began flights between Vigan and Manila on February 17, 2017 and between Vigan and Basco starting April 2017. In around 2020s, ABS-CBN's program, FPJ's Ang Probinsyano shot some scenes in the Airport On May 25, 2022, the Department of Transportation (DOTr) and the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) inaugurated the completed Vigan Airport development projects includes the improved the Passenger Terminal Building, including the arrival and pre-departure areas and the construction of the airport’s Administrative Building, a powerhouse, and the provision of runaway features.

Western Institute of Technology (Philippines)

The Western Institute of Technology (WIT) is an engineering college located in La Paz, Iloilo City, Philippines. It was established in 1964 with the primary goal of addressing the increasing demand for skilled manpower in the field of engineering in the Western Visayas region. History The institution traces its origins to the College of Engineering of the former Iloilo City Colleges (now University of Iloilo-PHINMA), where faculty members, led by Dean Retogo A. Aldeguer, entered into an agreement with the school's administration to manage the College of Engineering. Following the expiration of this agreement in 1963 and the closure of Iloilo Rizal College (IRC), the faculty and staff behind the College of Engineering established WIT. In 1962, a group of faculty members, led by Engr. Ricardo T. Salas, formed the WIT corporation with an initial paid-up capital of P75,000. After securing the necessary resources, WIT acquired the assets of IRC in September 1963 and officially launched the institution in 1964. The school initially offered engineering courses, including Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineering, as well as a two-year BS Chemistry program. WIT has expanded its academic offerings and facilities in 1966. It introduced a program in Education, followed by courses in Marine Engineering, Liberal Arts, and Graduate School programs in the 1970s. The school continued to evolve with the integration of computer subjects into its curriculum in the 1980s and the subsequent introduction of computer-related degree programs such as Computer Engineering and Information Technology in the 1990s and 2000s. WIT is now also offering programs in fields such as Hotel and Restaurant Management and Political Science.
