ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT AWARDEE Meet 22- year old Amira Alia Paredes Montero, one of the outstanding alumni recipients for CIE’s Award for Outstanding Academic Achievement. 

The recognition is being bestowed on the occasion of the Grand CIE World Alumni Homecoming & 30th Year Pearl Anniversary of the Centre for International Education (CIE), recognized as one of the country’s premier business & management schools.

A YOUTH LEADER & PUBLIC SERVANT Aya, as she is called by family and peers, is the founding president of the Panglao Youth Organization which has built a solid reputation for being supportive of youth empowerment, community involvement & leadership training long before she was elected as SK Panglao Federated Chair which gave her a seat in the town’s law- making body.

Having parents who are respected community leaders (her mom Nila Montero is the incumbent Panglao municipal mayor and dad Frank is an elected municipal councilor) and who have successfully managed the family- owned beach resort in Panglao have been a major influence in her career choices and have equipped her with astute decision- making tempered by a sensitivity and concern for the less privileged in her community.


Likewise, her belief that real education is only achieved when complemented by learning experiences acquired outside the portals of one’s school. Aya’s exposure to life’s realities even at such a young age developed her strong sense of devotion for the youth even more.
