00:00Yes, I'm currently the second nominee for Agiman Party List.
00:04So I'm very excited about that.
00:05You know, for the past few months, I've been working to really connect with my community.
00:09And we are trialing in two weeks' time.
00:12Is this something that you really planned beforehand?
00:16Or has it been part of your goals?
00:20You know, like pageantry.
00:21I never planned to join pageantry, to be honest.
00:24But because I found out that my Tita Myrna was the first ever Miss Universe Philippines,
00:28Myrna Pandilio, who represented the Philippines in 1964,
00:32you know, legacy to me is very important.
00:34Hence why I joined pageantry.
00:36And from pageantry, I found my passion in giving back to the community
00:39beyond my efforts in my business world.
00:43And so I think that this is very...
00:46It's just always been a calling for me, I guess.
00:49Because I know that I can get to a platform where I can help more people as well.
00:53And so who am I to pass that up, right?
00:55If you can help more people.
00:57And so what I'm bringing to the table, hopefully, is going to be more on women empowerment,
01:01the LGBTQI+, community, of course, coming from pageantry.
01:06You know, a lot of the people I surround myself with are within that community.
01:10So that's something that I want to help.
01:12But before I do that, in the upcoming months, I'll be traveling around the Philippines
01:18to have focus group discussions from different sectors, marginalized sectors,
01:24and really ask what their problems are.
01:26Because hearing what the people need will give me some sort of direction
01:31on what laws I can pass should I have a seat in Congress.
