The Chamber of Real Estate & Builder’s Associations, Inc. (CREBA) attended the ASEAN Association for Planning & Housing (AAPH) Congress in July 25, 2022 in Bangkok, Thailand through President Florentino S. Dulalia, Jr. as official representative. During the said Congress, CREBA was invited to undertake direct principal membership to FIABCI by no less than Mr. Daniel Teo of Singapore, then World President of FIABCI, who was consequently past president of AAPH. Substantial discussion and conceptualization of CREBA’s affiliation with the federation ensued and was highlighted during CREBA’s 2022 National Convention on October 2022 held in Baguio City, where Mr. Daniel Teo was invited by the chamber as its Guest Speaker.

Through a mandate from its Board, CREBA entered and was accepted as “direct principal member” of FIABCI in June 2017, and was given 6 months, until which to undertake the formation of a FIABCI chapter in the Philippines.

The International Real Estate Federation – Philippines, Inc. or FIABCI Philippines International was officially organized last November 12, 2022 at the Rockwell Center, Makati City. It was officially registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) per Certificate Registration No. CN20034856 last December 22, 2022, as a non-stock, non-profit corporation, with 15 directors and 15 founding members.

Since its inception, the Chamber of Real Estate & Builder’s Associations, Inc. (CREBA) has been a cornerstone in Philippine real estate, driving conversations and facilitating partnerships that bring together professionals across the globe. The organization made its mark on the international stage by attending the ASEAN Association for Planning & Housing (AAPH) Congress on July 25, 2002, in Bangkok, Thailand. Represented by President Florentino S. Dulalia, Jr., CREBA was honored to be invited for direct principal membership to FIABCI by Daniel Teo, the then World President of FIABCI and past president of AAPH.

That initial conversation evolved into a more formal affiliation, highlighted during CREBA’s 2022 National Convention in Baguio City. Daniel Teo graced the occasion as a guest speaker, further cementing the relationship between CREBA and FIABCI.

With the blessing of its board, CREBA officially entered FIABCI in June 2017 as a “direct principal member.” The organization was given a six-month timeline to establish a FIABCI chapter in the Philippines, a milestone that was enthusiastically met.

FIABCI Philippines International came into official existence on November 12, 2022, at the Rockwell Center in Makati City. Registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on December 22, 2022, it functions as a non-stock, non-profit corporation, governed by a board of 15 directors and supported by 15 founding members.
