RED MOBILE PHILIPPINES

Posted by: Juan In: Technology

Red Mobile Sim Cards are now available in the market here in the Philippines. It’s good but still there are some difficulties.

You can only use this sim card in your 3G capable handset. You can also avail there call and text promo with people having the same network otherwise you can’t reach them.

So as of now we can’t enjoy the capabilities of this 3rd Generation technology of the Red Mobile Philippines former Umobile as it was very limited for us to use the reason, majority of the mobile users are just using the simple one. You can’t just say to your friend to shift in a 3G capable handset just to communicate.

Plus Red Mobile claiming there nationwide coverage as it was in their TV advertisements but most of the Red Mobile users didn’t agree with this. Maybe our luck with this Red Mobile Network will exist by the next 3rd generation (year 3000).

But the thing is simple, this development is just for the elite group having a class A lifestyle. So it depends.

I think that the Philippines is privileged to have Jam Charish Libatog as its official representative to the Miss Tourism International pageant in Malaysia come December 31, 2008. I believe that given her classic Filipina beauty coupled with her impressive stature, not to mention her wit and charm, it’s not a far cry that our country is going to have its second international title-holder, next to Miss Earth 2008 Karla Paula Henry, who’s also under the tutelage cum management of Cebu’s top pageant-fashion guru Dexter Alazas, managing director of A.D. Models Philippines, the agency that handles both Jam’s and Karla’s modelling career. So, instead of trying to tear Jam down by wishing her ill on her participation in the pageant in Kuala Lumpur, why don’t we just pray for her so that once again, our country will be put in the world map and be recognized the world over. Thank you.

MISS CEBU 2009: Who will be the 25th loveliest Cebuana?

By Ariel Allosada Allera

The Pacific Grand Ballroom of the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino will experience an illustrious night of glitz and glamour, pomp and pageantry, as past Miss Cebu beauties witness the quest for their 25th successor, the young lady whose crown will be relinquished by reigning queen Sian Elizabeth Maynard.

Celebrating its Silver Anniversary, the Miss Cebu continues to search for no less than the most exceptional lady that best defines the authentic characteristic of what a lovely Cebuana is, and how she lives up to her platform to make Cebu an even more captivating city both to come by and to live in.

For 25 years, this pageant has maintained its world-class production that can allegedly never even be compared with any of the major national beauty contests in Manila, much less its high-end presentation of its official candidates to spectators walking on the red carpets — consistently, quite a number of whom are members of Cebu’s elite. Because the event is one of the highlights of the annual Sinulog festivity, a lot of tourists from both overseas and other parts of the country are customarily expected to come and watch.

To be telecast live on Studio 23 at 8:00 PM on January 14 (Wednesday), the 2009 Search for Miss Cebu (spearheaded by Cebu City Tourism Commission) will likewise pay tribute to Cebuana beauties who, in their respective current fields of endeavor, have made an exceptional mark, thus giving us Cebuanos 25 years (and beyond) of reason to be proud of our heritage. One of these is Miss Cebu 2006 second runner-up Karla Henry, the very first Filipina to have captured the Miss Earth crown, so far the one and only Cebuana to have won an international beauty title.

This year’s roster of candidates holds a promise of another exemplary lady who will serve as an ambassador of goodwill, a spokesmodel for young Cebuanas, a voice of Cebu to the world.

Twelve equally smart and charming candidates are vying for this year’s Miss Cebu crown and the Silver scepter as a token of her being the 25th loveliest Cebuana.

Candidate # 1 Ana Coritha Desamparado
Birthdate: May 16, 1990 Height: 5′4″ Weight: 108lbs. School: University of the Philippines

Candidate # 2 Sheda Lynn Dusaban
Birthdate: October 10, 1988 Height: 5′4″ Weight: 110lbs. School: Cebu Institute of Technology

Candidate # 3 Christine Tan
Birthdate: December 1, 1983 Height: 5′4″ Weight: 110lbs. School: Cebu Normal University

Candidate # 4 Nadia Claire Urbino
Birthdate: December 20, 1989 Height: 5′4″ Weight: 90lbs School: University of San Jose-Recoletos

Candidate # 5 Tara France Oliver
Birthdate: October 5, 1988 Height: 5′4 1/2″ Weight: 102lbs School: University of San Carlos

Candidate # 6 Ethel Bitoon
Birthdate: November 23, 1984 Height: 5′5″ Weight: 109lbs. Company: LEXMARK Research & Development Corporation

Candidate # 7 Phoebe Kaye Fernandez
Birthdate: November 16, 1987 Height: 5′5 1/2″ Weight: 105lbs. School: University of San Carlos

Candidate # 8 Kimberley Therese Burden
Birthdate: September 7, 1989 Height: 5′6 1/2″ Weight: 120lbs. School: Cebu Doctors’ University

Candidate # 9 Michelle Iva “Isa” Eguia
Birthdate: March 28, 1988 Height: 5′7″ Weight: 110lbs. School: Centre for International Education

Candidate # 10 Angela Grace Alibanon
Birthdate: April 26, 1988 Height: 5′8″ Weight: 120lbs. School: Cebu Doctors’ University

Candidate # 11 Rizzini Alexis Gomez
Birthdate: August 29, 1990 Height: 5′8″ Weight: 118lbs School: University of Cebu

Candidate # 12 Kris Tiffany Janson
Birthdate: December 21, 1989 Height: 5′8″ Weight: 118lbs. School: University of San Carlos

Friends,

Miss Cebu has always been one of the biggest events in town to look forward to each year. This year’s pomp and pageantry will take place come January 14 (Wednesday night at 8) at the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino’s Pacific Grand Ballroom… to be telecast live on Studio 23.

Two of the aspirants are members of A.D. Models Philippines (managed by friend Dexter Alazas), the same agency that takes care of Miss Earth Karla Henry. They are Candidate #12 Kris Janson and Candidate # 9 Michelle Iva Eguia (Isa). Both are equally gorgeous yet qualified to be crowned as Miss Cebu 2009.

One of the special awards to be given out during the coronation night will be Miss Internet (or something like that). Hence, I’m inviting as many people as far as this generic message goes to vote for the one candidate who deserves the award more than the others. I’ve talked to most of the girls, and while every one is entitled for the title, there’s one who stands out on account of her platform to make the most of her reign by teaching young Cebuano women the essence of body image (read: so that they should stop worrying about their weight, size, height, color, and whatnot). With that alone (among many others), we bet she should win not only the Miss Internet special award but, of course, the most coveted title of Miss Cebu 2009.

I’m talking about Candidate # 9 Michelle Iva Eguia (Isa). She’s currently a Dean’s Lister at the Center for International Education on her Business Management studies. Not only does she have the wits, the brains, the smarts and the gift of gab, but more importantly, she has a very passionate heart. Her sunny disposition makes her stand out amongst the girls; her fluency bespeaks her spirituality in that she talks with a lot of sense and substance as a by-product of her pure thoughts and pacific emotions.

Now, with all of the above, why can’ t she be the next Miss Cebu?

Anyhow, there are voting booths at SM City and at the Ayala Center which you can utilize for free.

To vote through Globe, text VOTE(space)FOR(space)MSCEBU(space)ISA and send to 2278.

To vote using the internet, kindly go to http://www.cebucitytourism.com/ms_cebu_2009 and follow the links leading to Candidate # 9 Michelle Iva “Isa” G. Eguia.

I guess, the safest or easiest way to get to the link is by simply copying the URL below and pasting the same in the address bar:

http://cebucitytourism.com/ms_cebu_2009/candidates.html?contestant=9

Thank you very much. Rest assured, Michelle Iva Eguia is going to make a perfect Miss Cebu should we give her the chance to prove her worth. May God bless us all!

Sincerely,

Ariel Allera

The recently concluded Miss Cebu 2009 Search is not exempt from intrigues. Pageant experts can’t help commenting that the organizers could’ve made things better had they invited judges who had the trained eyes for poise and bearing or people whose credibility could not be questioned. It doesn’t matter whether one of the judges was a former supermodel, for she alone was not enough to have made a contribution in coming up with an intelligent decision at the end of the night.

A lot of the winners of Best in Gown are obviously not worthy of their award. An intelligent judge will always bear in mind that they’re going to choose the one girl who’s got the most class and elegance, the best style and carriage, but then most of them are biased for reasons either political or personal.

How could Rizzini have won the award this year when, obviously, she didn’t carry her gown quite well? She looked as though she was travelling hard. Many have talked here and there: Is it because she was wearing a Cary Santiago or the latter’s name is a hotstuff in Manila that she was chosen for the award? We don’t want to think that the judges were dumb, do we? The award should’ve gone to Kris Tiffany Janson because she was regal from head to toe.

Last year’s Best in Gown should’ve been Kirstie Babor because she displayed such an opulent style and was carrying her gown with so much elan. Two years ago, it was Joan Kristine Uy who glided best as if trained by Osmel Sousa in Venezuela. In 2006, Angel Luzano stood out among her co-candidates despite the gown; she knew how to walk, didn’t she? Who can argue that during the 2002 Miss Cebu Search, it was Melanie Ediza who should’ve been awarded Best in Gown because she’s the most sophisticated of all the candidates?
