Florabel Sakaki is Miss Dauis 2017

Florabel Sakaki, a 17 year old half- Japanese beauty was crowned Miss Dauis 2017 after she outshone 11 other beauties in a glittering two- hour show held at the Dauis Sports Arena last weekend. Aside from the top tiara, Bingag’s lovely bet also swept the swimsuit, evening gown & interview segments.

This year, the pageant committee revised the scoring system. Instead of the usual "back- to- zero" where the finalists start with a clean slate, the finalists' preliminary scores were added to their final round scores and this helped Ms Sakaki clinch the crown  even though she faltered quite a bit in the final Q & A.

After topping all three areas of judging, Ms. Sakaki already had a commanding lead going into the final round.  Your Roving Eye believes that Miss Dauis will be one of the frontrunners for Miss Bohol 2018. She has the height, the grace & elegance of a queen.

Rex Peter Calimbayan Places 2nd Runner Up In National Male Pageant!

Hail to the newest toast in town! Rex Peter Saletrero Calimbayan did his fellow Boholanos proud when he made it to the winner’s circle in the inaugural edition of the nationwide search for Gentlemen of the Philippines.

 The epitome of brawns, brains & breeding

Mr. Calimbayan, the 21 year old son of Rey and Myrna Calimbayan who represented Tagbilaran City in the male pageant that selects the country’s bets to several international pageants placed 2^nd RU.

Not bad for a newbie in the modeling and pageant scene. As runner up, he has to attend to various sponsor-related activities and be prepared to take over as Philippine representative in the event that one of the titleholders will not be able to assume the winner’s responsibilities.

 The latest toast in town

Your Roving Eye believes that Mr. Calimbayan’s winning edge was not only his charming & globally- appealing features but also his spontaneity and the way he aced the Q & A segment where he impressed the jurors and audiences alike with his deep baritone voice , confidence and his answer that had substance & sense.
