Yes. Yung asawa ko is Architect in the Philippines. but napunta siya sa linya ng ID nung nag work kami dito sa SG. Pinaassess namin yung sa VETASSESS niya is Interior Design. positive naman results. As long as majajustify mo na ID tlaga work mo. HIndi nila kinount yung isang company niya na magkahalong Archi and ID kasi most ng job description niya sa Company na yun is Archi. Hope this helps.
