“There are quite a number of countries, like Nigeria, but I did not select the place. The Philippines is okay, it’s very close, only three and a half hours (away),” he said.

“The Philippines has many places to offer. So the world final will probably be held in Davao. But we’ll still have activities in Manila,” added the Malaysian pageant owner.

“I thought it’s a good time to help the country, Philippines, in terms of tourism. Because ours is Miss Tourism International, so probably it’s a good opportunity for Philippines to have 45 to 50 countries by November,” Ooi said.
