Here's the photo of Michael Manansala, Mr. Philippines International 2009, during the national attire competition. He also celebrated his birthday in Taiwan with the other contestants but his performance failed to impress the judges.

His winning of the title in the Philippines was filled with intrigues, as usual, from other non-supporters. Yet, we still wish him all the best in his future undertakings!

i like the winner

not bad!
