UPDATED – The ban on Filipina candidates to International beauty competitions has been extended for another two years, following the recent crowning of two Filipinas as ‘Miss Globe’ (Ann Lorraine Colis)  and ‘Miss Earth’ (Angela Ong).

The following story was from 2013:

Bangkok, Thailand – After today’s fourth-place finish of Annalie Forbes, the Philippines’ representative to the Miss Grand International Beauty Pageant in Bangkok, Thailand, the  Association of Beauty Pageant Franchise Holders (ABPFH) has banned the Philippines from future international beauty competitions, citing “enormous advantage” by Filipina candidates in practically all pageants this year.

The  disqualification will be in effect for two years.

The Philippines holds the distinction of having won the title in all major beauty competitions like Miss Universe, Miss World and Miss International.  Additionally, every new international beauty competition has seen a Filipina winning the title or placing in the top 5.  Earlier this year, Mutya Datul won the 2013 Miss Supranational Pageant.

Forbes is the fourth Filipino to make it to the top 5 in competitions this year. Megan Young, of course, bagged the 2013 Miss World title this year, the first-ever for the Philippines.  Before Young, Evangeline Pascual reached the finals and was first runner-up in 1973 while Ruffa Gutierrez was second runner-up in 1993.

Ariella Arida, the country’s bet in the 2013 Miss Universe Pageant in Moscow, Russia, placed fourth.

Other Filipina beauties who have won international titles include Gloria Diaz and Margie Moran (Miss Universe) and Gemma Cruz, Mimilanie Marquez, Aurora Pijuan, and Precious Lara Quigaman (Miss International). Karla Henry won the Miss Earth title in 2008.

In 2010, 2011 and 2012, the Philippines’  Venus Raj, Shamcey Supsup and Janine Tugonon were all in the top 5 in the Miss Universe competition.

ABPFH said that it is time for the Philippines to give other countries the chance to win international beauty competitions, adding that “the world already knows how beautiful and talented Filipinas are.”

Bakit nila iban ang Pilipinas Hindi tama ang Idea na yan? dahil lang sa napapatunayan ng ating mga Candidate na sila ay karapat dapat na manalo, di ba nyo alam na nagdadaan sa butas ng karayon ang lahat ng atin Candidate para lamang makasungkit ng karangalan, dapat ganun din ang gawin ng ibang kandidato ng ibang bansa na gustong manalo patunayan din nila karapat dapat sila, galingan din nila at mag daan din sila sa butas ng karayom kung kinakailangan kung gusto nila maipagkaloob ang karangalan sa kani kanilang bansa…

  21. The beauty pageants’ representative for those contests had no fault of taking home the glory to our country. It wasn’t their fault to be the best and beautiful in those events. It wasn’t the country’s fault to have “enormous advantage” of having a competent candidates for those events. Who would want to bring home nothing? If you ought to compete, who would you send there? Give Philippines a break. . . It just meant that it is our time to have that crown and glory. And next time, send a candidate who will bring home the bacon….. Just saying!!!!! 😀

  26. Hay naku, verify muna kasi ang balita bago mag comment. Hindi lahat ng nakikita sa Facebook ay totoo. This is a lampoon online publication site. It was created for fun. C’mon guys. Nahahalata tuloy ang mga madaling maniwala sa chismis. Bato bato sa langit, ang tamaan wag masyadong pahalat. 😛

    Why the title, “The Adobo Chronicles,” you might ask? Well, adobo is the national dish of our home country.

  37. I agree give others the chance to win the title…Filipinas have or had been swiping the titles…and that should be enough to be proud of! two years will go by fast, and a year to look forward to for another winning titles for those who are qualified….Good Luck to all!

  42. I dont think it’s Fair! How about Venezuela. Venezuela should be banned to. Because Venezuela is also always on top in the past beauty pageants. Yes, they are really pretty but it’s becoming a tradition .

    1. Youre the one who`s not open-minded here. Not because they have helped us (and of course, we are extremely grateful) it means they can just do that. That is unfair and we should fight for that

  48. I hope it is not true,for my fellow Filipinos be calm in giving your comments, negativity won’t change anything rather it would add negative impact to our beloved Philippines. Let us try to be objective rather than subjective, and be more researcher in finding facts before giving not so helpful comments. We can always have our constructive comments or criticism. Mabuhay ang mga Filipina!
