MANILA - For the candidates vying to represent Quezon City in Ms. World Philippines and, hopefully, secure the crown to advance to the international stage, pageantry is far more than just a beauty contest  and believe it is “all about purpose.”

 “Anything and everything without a purpose is a pointless. Beauty Queens are influencers on a public stage. You can use your talents, gifts, abilities, interest, to make a difference,” Asia Simpson of Barangay Socorro said during the press conference held in Parañaque City, Friday 

The winner of Main title ‘Miss World Philippines Quezon City’ will join the Miss World Philippines National competition. Miss World Quezon City is a Franchise Organization of Miss World Philippines led by Head National Director  Arnold Vegafria.

 “We will support the winner all the way, hangang international. We are aiming for the international crown,”  franchise director Jen Jarina said in an interview held during the press presentation, Friday.

 Whether their advocacy comes from personal experience or a cause they are deeply passionate about, the candidates said are committed to reaching the big stage for the chance to create a more impactful and far-reaching change through the platform.

 “The true purpose is finding your core. I have a brother  who is a PWD, I am inspired to be his voice. I believe if you spread kindness, you are able to share better things,” Jalila Maranan of Barangay Matandang Balara said.

 “This is my purpose. I want to use it for my advocacy for HIV, with the rising number in the country. I want to promote the practice of safe sex, Angelika Triumfante of Novaliches added. 

Meanwhile, Shane Ganate of Sto. Cristo expressed her hope to become a role model than can empowering young women, creating a space where they can thrive and feel motivated.

 “It would inspire the youth. I can inspire the childten out there, the girls. I would form a community to inspire other women?” she said.

 Miss Wolrd QC, which makes its debut this year, seeks  to highlight the multi-faceted talents of women.  

More than just a competition of beauty, Miss World QC emphasizes the importance of charity work, leadership, and social awareness and encourages candidates to  “use their voice for the greater good.”

 “We are looking for someone who has unique character, intelligent, beautiful, and has a great body and attitude. Very  stiff competition because they are all beautiful, fit they are very ready,” Jarina said.
