The Miss Earth 2017 candidates are everywhere in the metro and nearby provinces these days. Environmental School Tours in Bulacan, Cainta, Barrio Obrero and Legarda. Visit to the eco project of Imus, Cavite. TV and radio guestings. Sponsor visits. Hosted dinners. And more.
Truth be told, the schedule of activities can be mind-boggling, coverage-wise. With three groups to cover, the events have also been multiplied by three. And the minute weekend comes, their trips to farther local destinations will start. Come Friday, ten of them will head up north to Hannah’s Beach Resort in Pagudpud, while a bigger roster will be Batangas-bound to Pontefino Hotel. And there’s more to come. In the meantime, not everyone can go far off the grid as there are continuous activities happening here in Manila as well.
The ten girls going to Hannah’s
With the many candidates it has to deal with, and still divide them into small groups, ME just shows that one month is indeed insufficient to cover all its advocacy-related activities. Environmental school tours, visits to eco projects, workshops, TV and radio guestings, courtesy calls to sponsors, hosted dinners, etcetera– these are part and parcel of ME’s brand-building activities. Its teaser declares: “environmental heroines have been summoned to battle the forces of evil that plot to harm our Mother Nature”. Clearly, its advocacy calls for its candidates to roll up their sleeves, so to speak, in project areas. It calls less for glitz and glamour in red carpet events. To comment negatively on petty issues of monoblock chairs being used and pack lunches being served is to put it out of context. The main battleground on climate change is not in cocktail parties, grandiose welcome balls, board rooms, sumptuous buffets, and some other “classy” events. It is in the grassroots. Obviously, among the global beauty pageants, ME is the only one trying to adhere closely to its advocacy. Some just scribble lofty ideals in a marketing tagline, and pay simple lip service to their avowed advocacy.
Bakit mukhang bakyang-bakya ang ME kumpara sa MGI? Sa mga activity photos pa lang wala nang sinabi ang ME. Classy ang dating ng MGI. Parang noontime show naman ang peg ng ME. Anuveh.
MGI has nothing to so kaya focus na lang sa pagpapaganda ng pics and all. Hahahaha
nakakatarantang ifollow ang mga activities ng ME…Bukod sa pakalat kalat sila sa dami ng events at venue nila hinati pa sila sa tatlong grupo…I hope mag enjoy mga girls sa philippine experience nila
That’s what happens when you have a month long pageant, should only be 2 weeks.
