“Coming from different regions, we see a diverse mix of personalities, intellect and cultures, which makes them beautiful in their own way,” shared CPH General Manager, Anthony Tan. He added, “We had a chance to talk to some of them and I was pleasantly surprised with the advocacies they are supporting which goes beyond preventing use of plastic to protecting diminishing terrain as well.” 

Carousel Productions, the pageant organizer, has partnered with CPH once again in its bid to support the organization’s enduring advocacy in promoting environmental awareness across the globe. 

“Majority of the delegates are first-time visitors to the Philippines, some of them have not been even out of their countries until today which makes them homesick. Their time here is more challenging as they need to contend with the competition. We truly understand how it feels to long for familiarity so we at CPH are here to ensure that each one of them is well taken cared of and be comfortable right away,” enthused Mr. Tan. 

The Goddesses of the Earth reflected the same sentiments. When asked, what resonated from them was the warmth of the staff and the welcome they received upon stepping inside the hotel. CPH was the perfect place to start in their venture outside their country as relayed by some of the ladies in the group.

The candidates paraded by the pool in white two-piece swimsuits. Beyond their beauties and wit, they shared their slogans calling for everyone to recycle, re-think, reuse, and combat climate change issues.

The theme is "Ecotourism is a key to poverty alleviation," and "re-think," "re-use," "reduce," "recycle," and "respect."

At the International Environmental event hosted by  Carousel Productions, Inc.,  Miss Earth  2017 beauties work together to have all nations unite in our joint efforts to help preserve and protect our one and only home: the Planet Earth.

Ms. Lorraine Schuck, Executive Vice President of Carousel Productions, Inc., shared:
