Congratulations to Mister Philippines Philippine National Police officer Mariano Flormata Jr. a.k.a. Neil Perez for winning Mister International 2014!
Here is his Q&A (video from Norman’s blog):
And here is a more accurate, less flowery, translation of his answer:
Q: What has been your biggest disappointment in life? (Ano ang pinakamalaki mong kabiguan sa buhay?)
A: Unang-una ang aking disappointment sa buhay ay ang hindi ko paggalang sa magulang ko. At ngayon pinagsisisihan ko ito dahil isang malaking bagay ang galangin natin ang ating magulang dahil siya ang pangalawang utos ng Diyos para sa ating mga Katoliko. Iyon lang po at maraming salamat. (First of all, my disappointment in life is not respecting my parents. And now I regret it because it is a big deal that we respect our parents, because it is the second commandment of God for us Catholics. That is all and thank you very much.)
