Sagot sa Q & A kinabiliban... Samantha, pinanghinayangang ‘di nakuha ang korona sa MGI

Pinanghinayangan ng netizens na first runner-up lang ang representative ng bansa sa Miss Grand International na si Samantha Bernardo.

Bilib kasi ang lahat sa naging sagot nito sa unang Q & A na : “With the current COVID-19 situation, what would you choose? Shutting down the country for the safety of the people, knowing that the country’s economy will be deeply affected, or opening up the country to keep the economy running and taking the risk of COVID-19 infections and consequences?”

Sagot nito “I will always choose the people. Because without its people, a country will never be a country. We will never be the Philippines without Filipinos, you will never be Thailand without Thais. So it is a must that we should take care of our people first.

“I stand here for love, and peace, and unity, because there will always be a solution no matter what our problems are in this life. And I think if we come together as people, as one united world, then we can have a better place to live in. I hope after this pandemic of COVID-19, we can be better citizens.”

Sa second final Q & A naman ay tinanong sila kung sino ang pipiliin sakaling may isang natitirang vaccine - senior citizen o 15 year old?

“My heart goes to senior citizens because my mom is turning into a senior citizen. And I’ve experienced the loss of my dad four years ago, and I cannot afford to lose my mom. My heart goes to them because they are the most vulnerable during this time. A 15-year-old has the stamina to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. And with proper exercise and healthy living, they can live with it,” bahagi ng sagot nito.

Nagwagi ng korona si Miss USA na nakarating na pala ng bansa nang sumali sa Miss Earth na ang ni-represent ay Miss Ghana.

Mas may puso raw ang mga sagot ni Samantha pero ‘yun nga, hindi pa rin niya naiuwi ang korona.

Sa Bangkok, Thailand ginanap ang coronation ng Miss Grand International.

Wala pang nanalong Pinay representative rito.
