A Thanksgiving Affair for Miss Tourism Philippines 2016

June 12, 2016 By Norman Tinio

Yesterday afternoon at the McKinley Function Room of Manila Polo Club,

a post-event Thanksgiving Party was held in honor of newly-crowned

Miss Tourism Philippines 2016 Sharyl Diana Catchillar and her court of

beauties. Members of the pageant media were invited by the organizers and the main honoree’s Kagandahang Flores camp which trained her for competition.

Sharyl, who is studying to become a Doctor in the future, was at her loveliest as she was formally presented to the Press, along with her advocacy to promote the Province of Pangasinan (which she represented in the pageant) and be of medical service to her fellow Filipinos someday.

Congratulations again, Sharyl!

“Love is not patronizing and charity isn't about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same -- with charity you give love, so don't just give money but reach out your hand instead.”
― Mother Teresa

A visit in a HIV ward in San Lazaro Hospital, Manila made me realize the impact of HIV in the health our youth today. Aside from this, I was deeply honored to meet and talk to the dedicated doctors that helped our HIV patients to live and go back to their normal lives. As the number of HIV cases in our country continuously rise, we should spread awareness among our youth especially tourists to be responsible and be mature in their actions. Thank you to Dr. Jose Benito Villarama, Dr. Cherry Abrenica and Dr. Lalaine Archangel for the support. ‪#‎Prevention‬ is better than cure
