"This year's batch is brimming with potential winners.

"Based on the preliminary interviews and performances, I won't be surprised if we surpass our previous track record from our previous years."

Aside from the introduction of candidates, two more titles were added from the current list of awards, namely, Miss Eco Teen International and Miss Philippines Tourism.
