Nabigyan ng ikalawang pagkakataon ang mga nagwagi sa nakalipas na Binibining Pilipinas na masagot muli ang mga tanong na ibinato sa kanila sa question-and-answer (Q&A) portion noong coronation night.

Sa programang "The Bottomline with Boy Abunda" noong Sabado, dumaan sa isang mistulang pagsasanay ang mga kinoronahang Binibini para sa pagsabak nila sa international pageants.

Ibinato ni Abunda sa kanila ang mga tanong na unang sinagot nila at ng iba pang kandidata sa coronation night noong Marso 18.

Naging pagkakataon din ito para makapagpaliwanag at dumepensa ang mga Binibini sa mga naging kontrobersiyal na mga sagot, gaya ng kay Sandra Lemonon ukol sa "Build, Build, Build" program at kay Karen Gallman hinggil sa pagpapagawa ng transgender bathrooms.

Narito ang mga sagot ng anim na kinoronahang Binibini:

EVA PATALINJUG - BB. PILIPINAS GRAND INTERNATIONAL

TANONG: What are your insights on the government’s "Build, Build, Build" program?
SAGOT: My insights about the 'Build, Build' program is that it's a very nice agenda of the government because it can help bridge the gap of the government's economic policies from the past government. Plus, it can increase job opportunities for the people of the Philippines. It can increase income. And the investment state of our country will increase as well.

TANONG: Do you believe that hazing in fraternities has its own good? Why or why not?
SAGOT: The girls and I have talked about hazing and hazing is not violence in itself. As a student of law, I know that hazing has different meanings naman eh. In law, some law fraternities have hazing but it doesn't mean that it's violence already. But nevertheless, violence should not be tolerated because it's very bad. All of us should always think about the detriments that people will have if they will commit violence.

JEHZA HUELAR - BB. PILIPINAS SUPRANATIONAL

TANONG: Name one great Filipino artist you truly admire and why.
SAGOT: I think one Filipino artist that I truly admire is Mr. Ryan Cayabyab because I'm a musically inclined person. I really love music and music has been my life ever since I was younger. It helped overcome adversities in life.

TANONG: This year marks the graduation of the first ever batch of K to 12 students. What is your message to them?
SAGOT: My message to them is that education is really important and they should always remember that they should put education first before anything else. Because education is the only wealth they can have in their future. And, you know, you can use it wherever they go, wherever destinations or paths they would lead into. So, to all the students of K to 12, I would love to say just enjoy the moment, enjoy your education, and get as much knowledge as you can.

MICHELE GUMABAO - BB. PILIPINAS GLOBE

TANONG: After the devastating war, Marawi is now on its way to recovery. What is your message to the young women of Marawi?
SAGOT: My message to the young women of Marawi is to have hope. Everything can be rebuilt, everything can rise up from the ashes. And if everybody just works together and be governed by love—love for one's self, love for each other and love for our country—everything around you will once again be as beautiful as before.

TANONG: What do you think is the most important quality of a millennial woman?
SAGOT: The most important quality of a millennial woman is our versatility. We are able-bodied women who can take on so many different roles, who are courageous enough to dream big dreams, and who are destined for so many things. Our versatility sets us apart from so many other women, and so many other people because we are just able to do everything with grace, with poise, and also with intelligence and beauty at the same time. Thank you.

KAREN GALLMAN - BB. PILIPINAS INTERCONTINENTAL

TANONG: What is the role of beauty queens in the pursuit of our country’s economic success, if any?
SAGOT: You know, beauty pageants is not about just showcasing your beauty or your personality, it's giving us a platform to showcase our intelligence and as well as giving us a platform to introduce our advocacies. And beauty pageants also help boost the economy because a lot of people visit the Philippines to watch us, and it boosts tourism, as well as everyone who's watching and making everyone happy. Thank you.

TANONG: Boracay and its hazardous environmental situation, what is your view on this issue?
SAGOT: My view on the closure. I'm for it, I'm for the closure of Boracay, for the rehabilitation of Boracay. If you save it now, there will be more people who can go there and enjoy their time in the future.

AHTISA MANALO - BB. PILIPINAS INTERNATIONAL

TANONG: What do you think is the biggest misconception about beauty pageant contestants?
SAGOT: I think the biggest misconception about beauty pageant is that this is just a show of beauty. But that is wrong because this is a show of wit. We have so much wonderful, strong women who have platforms, who have advocacies that they can contribute to the Philippines. And I think that we as beauty queens should always be a role model.

TANONG: What can you do to fight fake news?
SAGOT: I think we as Filipinos should fight fake news using discernment. We should always verify what we read, what we share. This is the best way to fight it. Just to discern it, just to know what you are sharing, just to know what is the truth from what is not. Thank you.

CATRIONA GRAY - MISS UNIVERSE PHILIPPINES

TANONG: Do you agree that a third restroom should be built for transgenders? Why or why not?
SAGOT: I do not agree. I believe that if you're transgender, you identify as that gender. So I feel that we should accept them and allow them to use the restroom in which they identify with, which would be either the men or women bathroom. I think this promotes inclusivity and allows them to understand what they want as a transgender. And that is to be accepted by us, not just tolerated.

TANONG: How should a beauty queen respond to ruthless criticism?
SAGOT: I think us beauty queens are put in such a discerning arena where we are subject to so much feedback, whether it be negative or positive. And I think it's an individual choice just to listen to the people you trust around you, who you know will give you constructive feedback, who know your preparation, the whole detail, so they can accurately give you constructive criticism that can really help you.
