Ms Universe 1969 Gloria Diaz is getting flak from Cebuanos because of her comments about the use of an interpreter during beauty pageants.
When Gloria Diaz said "Kasi, when you think about a Cebuana can hardly speak English and, of course, Tagalog, maybe she should answer in Bisaya," Cebuanos went up in arms and immediately thought of ways to get back at Gloria Diaz.
Cebu City Rep Cutie del Mar spent her precious privilege speech to denounce Gloria Diaz and her statement, calling it an insult, and demand a public apology.
Not to be outdone, the Vice Mayors League of the Philippines-Cebu has issued a resolution declaring Gloria Diaz "persona non grata" in Cebu.
In the words of Angelica Jones: "over OA."
In this country, being called "bobo sa English" is one of the greatest insult that you can say against a person.
Isang malaking kamalian na isipan na hindi matalino ang isang Pilipino hindi marunong magsalita at umunawa ng Ingles.
Isang kapalaluan ang isipin na porke marunong kang mag-ingles class ka na.
Kaya Cutie del Mar tama na ang pagpapa cute sa Kongreso, get to work. And to the vice mayors, marami sa distrito nyo ang naghihirap, tulungan nyo kung paano mangisda.
Goodness, all these outrage over a freaking beauty contest!
