00:00But first, let's take a look at what is Reina Hispano-Americana?
00:11I mean, describe the contest to us.
00:13So, Reina Hispano-Americana is a pageant that is based in Bolivia.
00:16So, itong pageant nito, they speak Spanish.
00:19It is very Spanish-based, based on Latin heritage.
00:23So, whoever wins this pageant is a spokesperson for the Latin community and Hispanic culture.
00:29So, who can join the contest?
00:32So, we need to have a Hispanic culture and a Hispanic influence.
00:36So, of course, the Philippines was colonized by Spanish for 300 plus years, right?
00:42So, they let us join the pageant because we have so many similar cultures and traditions as the Latinos.
00:49Yes, there are traits, right?
00:51Yes.
00:52The way we speak, the way we count, one, two, three.
00:55Exactly.
00:56So, that's not true.
00:57But, can you speak Spanish?
00:59I can speak a little bit of Spanish.
01:01How do you say that?
01:03Poquito.
01:04Poquito.
01:05Poquito.
01:06I speak only Poquito in Spanish.
01:08Okay.
01:09What is Miss Eco International?
01:11By the way, I'm sorry, Alexi.
01:13Win-win won this contest a couple of years ago.
01:16Yes.
01:17So, the second one?
01:18Yes, I'm the second one.
01:19Okay.
01:20Alexi naman, you're the third one to win the crown.
01:24Yes, dito.
01:25Okay.
01:26So, what is Miss Eco International?
01:27So, Miss Eco actually is like beauty for eco or environment.
01:31Right.
01:32What most people understand is they thought that it's only limited to the environmental side, which is Miss Eco is working or with partners with the United Nations.
01:39So, pwede po siyang pasok yung SDGs natin na number 17 or up until 17.
01:43So, when I got the crown, I am an ambassador for Miss Eco International for the United Nations.
01:48And right now, ambassadors of the Philippines also for the United Nations.
01:51So, it's literally letting everyone be aware of what's happening into our world.
01:56Okay.
01:57The importance of taking care of our nature and the importance of knowing that climate change is happening.
02:01And we need to act.
02:02Israel.
02:03Of course.
02:04Yes, dito.
02:05Totoo.
02:06No, okay.
02:07So, your duties are very clear.
02:10Ang tanong, ano bang premium nito?
02:12You get a crown?
02:13Do you get $1 million each?
02:15I mean, paano yun?
02:16Talagang $1 million.
02:18Ay, sana naman po, di ba?
02:20Please.
02:21Pero sa Reyna po, yung mga prices are, for example, clothes from designers from Latin America.
02:28Wow.
02:29Especially in Bolivia, we have a lot of material things.
02:32So, shoes, clothes, bags, all from Latino designers.
02:36And there's also a cash prize din po.
02:38And several other things.
02:39Ganda.
02:40While Miss Eco.
02:41With Miss Eco, dito.
02:42Also the same with the cash prize, with the crown.
02:45And of course, being the ambassadors for United Nations, I think that one, parang winner siya.
