The six ladies above are my favorites for the title of Miss Global Philippines so far.

Let’s see who among the 23 stunners (where a good handful are quite competitive and with good international potentials) will zoom in strong in the upcoming month before the scheduled finals. Quite a long way still before the big day, if you ask me. But that should give everyone time to prepare. 😉
