THE WINNING ANSWER
Miss Philippines, PRECIOUS LARA QUIGAMAN – crown holder of the 2005 MISS INTERNATIONAL!
the winning answer:
Q: “what do you say to the people of the world who have typecasted
filipinos as nannies?”
A: “i take no offense on being typecasted as a nanny. But i do take offense that the educated people of the world have somehow denegrated the true sense and meaning of what a nanny is. let me tell you what she is. she is someone who gives more than she takes. She is someone you trust to look after the very people most precious to you – your child, the elderly, yourself. she is the one who has made a living out of caring and loving other people. so to those who have typecasted us as nannies, thank you. it is a testament to the loving and caring culture of the Filipino people. and for that, i am forever proud and grateful of my roots and culture.”
