[@elizabethantillon3756]

The Secret Of The Filipinos Is Our Closeness To The "Lord" ......😢🎉

[@vareseources]

Yup, we even have the Son of God who was just arrested for multiple crimes 😅🤣

[@GranByte]

uhhhm....actually your lord has nothing to do with it. The Filipinos themselves deserve all the credit DESPITE the lord!

[@Nih426]

We can't do anything without our true God.

[@vareseources]

@@Nih426 probably. There are no criminals, abortion, rape, etc if he does not control everything as well. Everything is in his power. The problem with god is that, when something good happens, we give him credit, but when something bad happens, we blame people.

Congratulations kabayan for lifting out pride as Filipinos internationally. Sana lang ma-epromote din yung mga gawang tela ng ating mga kababayan na IP at yun gawing suits o gown upang makatulong din sa kanila. Maganda kase colorful & it shows our culture. Sana magkaroon ng batas promoting yung mga tela na habi ng mga katutubo.

[@jessmend1239]

This is a singing contest and not a cultural contest. The price money is known in advance, if it is too small for you then donate some money yourself or convince them to just stay home and not travel to other countries. The honor they achieve is much more than any monetary concern you have, shame.

[@cebuanomindchannel7592]

@@jessmend1239 what a negative mentality you have? What's wrong with my opinion then you commented negatively on my opinion? Please understand well before you express your toxicity. Shame in you...

dapat mas dalasan ng gobyerno ang pagsuporta sa mga ganito lalo sa music,dance and arts industry dahil dito lamang talaga tayo, inborn talent. Sa sports talagang limitado lang talaga kaya natin maabot dahil lamang talaga sa height ang ibang lahi, hnd lang kasi sa basketball bentahe ang height sa ibang sports din.
