SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
Dear Kababayans, Friends and all,
UFT is pleased to announce another exciting and awesome highlight in the forthcoming December 14th Paskong-Pasko (Part2) event.
The talent and beauty of young Filipinos (or mixed lineage) are recognized early at this year's Little Miss Philippines Pageant.
The contest is meant to search for a young Ambasadress of Goodwill that will appeal to a much younger generation.
Apart from being a popularity contest, the winner will be asked to promote Philippine culture and to showcase the beauty, talents,
intelligence and virtues of a young Filipina. Be the little Aiza Seguerra of Bangkok and open doors of fame and prestige!!!!
CANDIDATES ARE NEEDED. Calling parents, guardians, aunts, uncles, grandparents, siblings even groups to field in the little beauty
princesses from 3 - 10 years of age.
The contestants will be judged on their ability to capture their audience who will cast their
votes of appreciation with their cash donation.
The contestants will compete in a Talent Presentation. Anything entertaining and in good taste is considered a Talent presentation.
All Talent Presentation should not exceed 4 mins and 59 seconds.For each performance each of the three judges will make their
respective comments. (Ala Paula Abdul in American Idol -- don't worry no Simon Cowell comments allowed).
Apart from the winner, we will have special awards for Miss Talent and Miss Congeniality.
The young ones would have fun with the other contestants. Then, the crown of Little Miss Philippines will be a wonderful gift
to bring home for Christmas along with the children's lasting friendship.

Where did BB1's message go?
The plan sounds fun but to use children as a source of fund seems desperate. Can't UFT find other means to solicit for cash donations to fund its projects?
Anyway, this is typical in the Philippines. I guess it's acceptable.
Hi, Sir Erick!
This idea would really be a straight fun, no doubt. And as I’ve said earlier, one loophole is the idea of donation. How can it be all fun when the people who will watch will be asked to donate out of the blue?
Let’s take into account the general attitude of Philippines, plus the fact that not all Philippines in Thailand can afford donating in the name of fun; BUT give them something that will let them momentarily forget their homesickness, they will be enticed even to allot a part of their Christmas remittances. Lord, that is just oh so true!
Say, invite showbiz personalities to grace the event. Surely in that way, donation will flow cats and dogs! After all it is Christmas season. People will do things for the sake of fun, entertainment and the spirit of Christmas. And for those little cute wonders who will lose because they did not receive donations worth winning for, they will still enjoy the night. What of those showbiz thingies and screams that will bang their heads out while the contest is going on! That alone is a worthwhile experience, no doubt! A big Christmas gift for the “Thank You” little girls of the night…correct?
Again, my little worthless piece of cent this is…
