Kung ang tulad ko ay umibig sa iyo..."

Combine Miss Philippines' Beauty for Mother Earth Advocacy Campaign and Bb. Pilipinas' Parade of Beauties - then what do you have... Miss Bikini Philippines' own Motorcade to promote beauty, healthy lifestye, and overall well-being.

A commitment and a way of life it is and thus the reason why Slimmers World Philippines is all behind this.
