'Jewel' bets bare plans if they become Philippine president



Eighteen official candidates of the 2018 Jewel of the Philippines (JOP) beauty pageant were formally presented to the members of the media, pageant sponsors and invited guests at the Skydeck Hall of Madison 101 Hotel and Tower in New Manila, Quezon City last Oct. 18.

This year’s line-up of candidates include beauties from provinces and cities as far as Bukidnon, Misamis, Camarines Norte, Northern Samar, Ilagan City and Nueva Vizcaya. This batch is composed of university students, local pageant winners, a university professor and four candidates of the recent Miss World Philippines contest.

“We are very much delighted and happy that we are able to gather a very strong batch of candidates this year, though this is only our third year.  The tremendous support and positive feedback were are getting gives us more motivation and inspiration to make this advocacy-driven pageant an avenue for growth and development and opportunity to shine globally and make the country proud;

"I’m likewise thankful to our pageant sponsors, regional partners, pageant handlers and the media for their support” says John de la Vega, one of the country’s noted beauty queen makes, founder and President of Jewel of the Philippines and Jewel of the World pageants during the media presentation.

The beauty pageant promotes Philippine culture, heritage and art. Prior to the official press presentation, the beauties underwent a seminar with Rodne Galicha of the National Commission of Culture and the Arts.  The Jewel of the Philippines finals will be held on October 30.

At the press presentation, we asked half of the girls in random the question "If you become the President of the Philippines, what are your three priority programs." Here's how they answer: - ROBERT REQUINTINA

No. 2 Venus Balito
"First, I will solve the traffic because 'yun ang No. 1 na kalaban ng mga workers ngayon;  Then poverty in the country; and third, our relationship with other countries. especially China."


No. 3 Precious Kara Rocco
                  "I think No. 1 is education. Second is family. Third is relationship with God."


No. 4 Elijah Mae Salvador
"Una kong bibigyan ng solusyon ay ang kahirapan. Pangalawa ay edukasyon dahil gusto kong lahat ng kabataan ay makapag-aral at pangatlo, pag-alaga sa kalikasan natin."


No. 5 Rolenn Romero
                                "Traffic. Then corruption at 'yung pagtaas ng mga bilihin."

                       "No. 1 is health. No. 2 is education; and No. 3, discipline of the people." 


No. 11 Jerelleen Rodriguez
"The No. 1 problem in the country is poverty, then corruption; and education. All those three will be solved with more accessible education. Currently we have free education system and I would like to improve that kasi right now although it is free, not everyone has access to it."


No. 15 Dhonalyne Sion
    "No. 1 that I want to solve is traffic. No. 2 is minimum wage; and No. 3 agrarian reform."
