At the forefront of the economic landscape in the Philippines, AB Agosto recently renewed his membership in the esteemed Philippine Economic Society (PES). As the country’s largest network of economists, PES holds a pivotal role in bringing together professionals from academia, government, and the business sector. Established in 1962, PES has become a cornerstone in the international community of professional economic associations, holding the distinction of being a founding member of the Federation of ASEAN Economic Associations.
Being part of PES is not merely a membership renewal for Agosto; it signifies a connection to a rich tradition of economic scholarship and a commitment to advancing the economic well-being of the nation. In the context of PES’s international recognition, Agosto’s fifth renewal underscores the interconnectedness of Philippine economic thought with the global discourse, reinforcing the country’s presence in the Federation of ASEAN Economic Associations.
