The search for Miss Cebu 2011 is now on! This coming January 12, 2011 at the Pacific Grand Ballroom in Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino, history will once again be made and one Cebuana will be crowned this year’s Miss Cebu 2011!
Started in 1983 by a small group of Cebuanos blessed with foresight, Miss Cebu took on the task of promoting Cebu as a viable alternative tourist destination. This came at a time when tourism in the Asia Pacific region was at a jumpstart and was an imperative tool for countries to woo inventors to their shores. Cebu’s leaders then understood that this Queen City of the South needed to join the bandwagon and position herself as an island blessed by mother nature with splendid resources that beckoned and nurtured tourism and trade.
Miss Cebu, the pageant, became not only an event Cebuanos looked forward to, but also an effective vehicle to establish good relations with countries like Japan, Australia and Korea among others.
Hence, through typhoons, administration changes, economic turmoil, the organizers continued to put up the January pageant until it became a permanent must-see during the Sinulog fiesta week.
CESDEV Nursing supports Miss Feart Aguilar, a BSN 3 student of UC Banilad College of Nursing as she belts it out and vie for Sinulog Idol 2011.
Her singing prowess, confidence, and charm will surely be her aces as she faces the competition. Good luck, Feart!
A “mammoth” crowd joined the penitential procession, also called “Walk with Jesus,” this morning. Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama said the number of procession participants is a “barometer” that the Sinulog celebration this year will be a “huge success.” The mayor said he expects the participants during the procession to also join the grand parade, and double the crowd that will watch the Sinulog event on Jan. 16.
Sinulog Foundation Inc. officials had said that they expect more than two million people to watch the Sinulog grand parade. Meanwhile, Cebu City Police Office (CCPO) Director Melvin Buenafe said there is no gun ban during the Sinulog festivities.
During the mass—the first of a series of nine novena masses—following the procession, Sto. Niño devotees were reminded not to engage in too many rituals but to create a balance between performing religious rituals and keeping Christian values.
The old give way to the young. New thoughts sprout from fertile ground. While the New Year beckons us with many promises, don't forget to give the old year its due. Learn from past mistakes and carry the lessons of time with you.
