The exclusive search for contestants for the first Miss World Philippines pageant will begin in March, Quirino said in the Manila Bulletin report. The country's Miss World representative used to be chosen from participants of Binibining Pilipinas.
Airport officials told Manila Bulletin that holding the Miss World pageant in the country will increase foreign arrivals and tourism revenue.
