COMMISSION on Higher Education (CHEd) Chairman J. Prospero de Vera III called on Philippine universities to raise their standards after their positions dropped in the recent Times Higher Education Asia University Rankings.

"Our universities are aware that they must now see the global trends in education, see what is happening in other countries, compare themselves with universities in other countries, see what are the good things that can be done to improve as a university. That is what internationalization is all about; you go beyond your political boundaries, you go global," de Vera said in a press briefing on Friday.
