Miss World Philippines Inks New Deal with TV5
Miss World Philippines has inked an incredible new alliance with the country's newest and most aggressive broadcast institution in the country, TV5, which entertainment insiders speculate would be a truly prolific and strong venture.
After Gwen Ruais' incredible run and success as 1st runner up in last year's Miss World tilt in London, this amazing pageant continues to move forward with their celebration of "Beauty with a Purpose", emphasizing the cause of marginalized women and children as the main advocacy for the Miss World competition.
Things are getting more and more promising now with TV5 as the official media partner. After a careful deliberation process, the competition is set to bring together candidates that completely embody the true essence and innate beauty of the Filipina. Beauty and fitness guru and now Miss World Philippines 2012 Pageant Director Cory Quirino sees to the overall responsibility of finding the right Filipina for this gargantuan task and opportunity.
More than 113 candidates from all over the globe will compete for the miss World Crown on August 16 in Ordos, Inner Mongolia China.
