2011 Miss Earth Philippines from Casiguran Aurora deserves as queen

BALER, Aurora, June 6, 2011-Once again Aurorans proved in the province history that eventhough Aurora is one of the smallest provinces in the country the brain and beauty still prevailed no matter what and deserved to be the queen.

It’s really wonderful to see that our provincemate Athena Mae Imperial who hails from Casiguran town won in the recent coronation of 2011 Miss Earth Philippines which was held in Puerto Princesa, Palawan yesterday night.

Among the 48 candidates, Imperial was proclaimed as big winner although she was the shortest among the top 10 finalists, adding that she did not get any special awards even the minor ones. She was also not so tall in the contest but still proved that there’s a chance to be a beauty queen.

Imperial became a semi-finalist in the Mutya ng Pilipinas 2009 and kept going in joining the pageant. Now, it’s her victory. She is not tall enough for international competition    but she really is the Goddess of the Earth and deserves to be Miss Philippines Earth 2011.

As an Auroran, we congratulate Imperial for winning in the contest the title Miss Earth and must be proud of her now that she is representing the country in the coming Miss Earth 2011 beauty pageant in Pattaya, Thailand.

Imperial’s accomplishment will surely win the country’s television networks and other big companies which have seen her potentials to be their partner in the industry. It’s amazing and I mean it! (Jason de Asis)

    Siguradong may award iyan sa provincial government. Nandun si Gov. Bella Angara-Castillo nanood mismo sa pageant sa palawan kagabi.

    Swerte naman niya. Ang pakaalam ko ay puro mga katutubo ang nakatira dun sa Casiguran na kulang sa urbanidad at sinauna ang pamumuhay. Nung magawi ako dun 25 years ago ay napakaliblib ng lugar. Madami mga bata na garutin at sipunin. Mayron din palang magandang dalaga dun.

    Speaking in Anilao, Batangas in the training of the Noble Blue Falcons Environmental SCUBA Divers, Prof.Leonardo "Onad" Usita, National President of Noble Blue Falcons Environmentalists praise the coronation of Ms. Athena Mae Imperial as the new Ms.Philippines-Earth 2011 in Palawan. A product of the University of the Philippines-Diliman she is the epitomy of brain and beauty combined in a Filipina. As the pride of Casiguran, Aurora where unabated logging and APECO are controversial issues, may her charm inspire more environmentalists to fight for the genuine and sincere implementation of Total Log ban in Sierra Madre. Let her enchant everybody so that any development of the place will gear towards the protection of this fast-diminishing forest and coastal paradise.

    The Noble Blue Falcons International has both mountaineering and SCUBA Diving Divisions who together with Greenpeace- Southeast Asia and Save Sierra Madre Network are at the forefront of protecting Aurora's Natural Resources. "As we also condemn the deforestation of Mt. Santo Tomas in Tuba, Benguet , let the new Ms Earth winner help us in the protection of Sierra Madre and the Aurora Pacific which are the themes of the "Philippine International Climb and Dive 2012 To Save Sierra Madre and Pacific" on February 17-19, 2012 as we relentlessly advocate that there will be no strong tourism unless there is genuine environmental protection. (Noble Blue Falcons)

    Naku ay ginawa na palang Casiguran City ni John Estrada yung sa atin diyan sa Casiguran. Pwedeng mangyari yun basta't magpatuloy ang APECO para sa mga business na katulad ng Subic ecozone. Sana nga magkatotoo.

    Sa Casiguran ba talaga yan lumaki. Bakit maputi. Karamihan dun ay maiitim at magaspang ang balat. Baka nag-maynila yan or Cabanatuan. Ang alam ko yung mga magulang niyan ang purong Casiguranin.
