The Crown of Filipinos
Discovering the reigning stronghold within the Pearl of the Orient
Pristine beaches, native delicacies, and well-loved hospitality – these are the elements that uplift the Filipino stature. Much has been said about the Philippines for its top-notching spots where tourists journey along. Great food, as a package to every dive of adventure, is combined with a warm welcome and an enlightened smile. Over the years, the Philippines has truly gained a world-class identity that depicts a picture of one’s dream getaway. It is indeed one of Southeast Asia’s best-kept treasures. With this, tourism in the Philippines ruled in its supreme level. A vested royalty award has come to every true-blooded Filipino.
Behind every success comes a long trail of challenge. To exemplify, the Banawe Rice Terraces and the underground river in Palawan are evident sources to it. As early Filipinos tilted the land and as Palawan natives gave love to ensure the virginity of the forests, each portion is a product of perseverance. Even blood and sweat are offered for the grandeur of Philippines’ hidden yet exotic beauty. But even though breathtaking landscapes and mouth-watering specialties capture all eyes of the world, Philippines still inevitably experience endeavour after a serious quest for peace. These challenges represent the burning heart of every single Filipino to strengthen the true patriotic spirit that lingers despite economic crisis and social discrepancy. The government conjoined hands with the mass people to strengthen the country’s reputation –
from environment campaigns, community-based programs to simple word of mouth. One of the visible results is the Miss Tourism Philippines 2011 on February 26, 2011 at the Philippine International Convention Center-Forum 2, Pasay City, Not just that it is merely a pageant of young Filipino women bagging for the title, but it is a promulgation of the Philippines’ true beauty as a home to timeless travels.
As the Philippines became an epitome of nature and culture at its best, the ambassadress of tourism would carry a big responsibility for her mother land. The crown that would be set to her head is braided with personality together with advocacy. Even the materials used to create the crown symbolize the Philippines. Made from the pearls of Palawan, the crown showcases the innate beauty of the richest pearls that can only be found in the Philippines. Swarovski, to add, is another embellishment that gives an adoring accent to the design. ZURI WEARABLE ART., a design and manufacturing team of high-end wearable art, produced this crown as the sign of Philippines’ essence to the future. Just like the 7,107 islands, the raw materials used do not display any beauty at first glance when individually perceived. But once the raw materials are crafted diligently with creativity and utmost effort, the product becomes a masterpiece. With love, passion and effort upon the process of making, the unified beauty is achieved. It is not just a crown that the ambassadress would not only wear because she won the competition. It is most importantly the crown that each and every Filipino upholds for – the crown that stands for a renewed Philippines. A Filipino would be honoured to own a crown that humbly embraces glory for the country’s best.
The Philippines is a country with a grand beauty. It can be revealed if only there is the drive to promote peace and unity. Associated with that drive is the passion for doing what is right and just. So as the crown is a symbol of victory made with keen eyes for the love of art, so as the crown is truly a symbol of tourism caused by dedicated hearts for the love of Philippines. Unity is right next to our country. Take hold and promote the wonders of the Philippines. Be the first to make the step in wearing the crown and proclaim it to the ends of the earth. You deserve the crown!
