02:38What would you do for a living and why if salary was not an issue
02:43I would do exactly what I'm doing right now
02:46Actually, I've made a lot of sacrifices to be here in the Philippines
02:50I formerly lived in Canada
02:53But now I moved here to the Philippines to pursue my dreams, which is to be in the entertainment and pageantry
03:00Industry, but not only that but to go back to my Filipino roots and connect more with my with my traditions and heritage
03:07So if salary was not an issue, I would still be what I am doing right now because I believe in taking risks. Thank you

04:10Cannot maximize their potentials because of the lack of resources
04:14So I would take initiative towards creating programs
04:19for them to
04:21Hone, whatever skills they have because by the end of the day they have dreams and I have dreams
04:28That's why I am here
04:29If no one believed in me if no one gave me the resources that I needed I wouldn't be here today

07:01Miss joy Marcello. Hi. Here's my question. It's social media bringing people together or
07:09causing separation
07:12Media is bringing people together
07:14Why because it is a medium it is a tool as social media paved its way to the world today
07:19we are using it as a form of communication as a form of interaction now if we are knowledgeable enough to use this as a
07:26form of imposing information to be knowledgeable about our education about ourselves, then we would create a more
07:33Revolutionary and innovative nation that we could build it. Thank you so much
07:40Rapid-fire, I love that. Thank you so much
07:43All
07:46Right, we have our eighth contestant coming up, please come forward miss San Andres
07:57Looking lovely tonight. Welcome
08:05You have chosen attorney Annette goes on Valdez if you could invent a new holiday
08:11What would it celebrate and why
08:15If I could invent a new holiday
08:18It would be the colors of Manila holiday because within the lines of the illustrations
08:25Between the streets of Manila. There's so much color. There's so much art. There's so much
08:31definition between those lines and
08:37Thank you
08:40Very poetic. Thank you
08:42Makes me want to take a tour of the streets of Manila now all the color that you've just described
08:47Thank you so much up. Next. We have miss all this
08:55Hello looking beautiful and glad if you could pick an envelope for me
09:01You
09:06Have chosen miss Chelsea Manalo if you would be given the chance to travel back in time to any point in history
09:15What modern item would you take with you? And why I would like to take Jose Rizal's
09:22Novel, which is not only me down here. I believe that as a political science student
09:28I have immersed myself in the social political issues that is happening right now and in today's time
09:33We all know that it has always been happening. The history repeats itself
09:38Hence as Miss Manila
09:39I would be an embodiment of fulfillment and hope for other people and be a catalyst for change and rather change the history
09:46I change the novel rather to a new to a new chapter. Thank you
09:52Thank you
09:55I love that question. Love that answer
09:59Right. We are at our 10th contestant. Please come forward miss
10:04Manu good
10:11Welcome you could choose a judge. Thank you
10:17Our chairwoman of the board miss charles santos concho in today's world where true love becomes a
10:24terrifying
10:25Would you rather be in a relationship or in a situation ship and why?
10:33Well, that's a very odd question
10:35But I don't believe that we need to label relationship as situation ship or relationship
10:41as long as we would be able to love each other to be able to show kindness to each other and be able to
10:50Show love to each other
10:52Because at the end of the day it is not about labels
10:55But about what you can give to each other and understanding and comprehension it begets. Thank you
11:01Thank you very much
11:03Wise words for a healthy relationship
11:09All right, our last two finalists we have up next miss Espana
11:19Good evening
11:23Okay
11:27Once more our chairwoman of the board miss charles santos concho
11:33Resourcefulness versus formal education became a hot topic among netizens as a woman of worth
11:41What do you think is more important?
11:44Diploma or discard? I believe that this carte is the key to success mainly because
11:52Not only if you have a diploma, you're successful in origin. You need to know your worth
11:57You need to know that you can do so much in the community
12:01Even without a diploma and as a multifaceted leader that wants to serve the community
12:07I will still do my best despite lack of education because what's important is you have the heart to serve the community and be
12:16of service to society
12:18Thank you
12:19Very well spoken. I love that
