Who says 2019 was a lean year for Philippines in pageantry? Why are so many fans invested only on Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss International and Miss Earth when Philippines showed also her pageantry muscles in minor pageants? Why this myopic kind of thinking?
And to the uninformed, Philippines fare in this year's contests better than any countries combined. You will be the judge ... or shall we say let the record be the judge.
Meanwhile The Pageant Crown Ranking still rank Philippines as the number one pageant powerhouse despite a not so good performance in the BIG 5. Philippines stronghold in the top spot is because of her performances in all major and minor pageants in the past four years.
