Subject: Have to agree with you. Whether or not Davia places does not change the fact that this franchise holder needs to change the way he selects girls. It is like if he totally forgets that Miss World is a beauty pageant. Most of the girls at the local competition were very mediocre and none really stood out to be very strong with the exception of a couple of girls who seemed to have some potential. It is almost like if this franchise holder has taken the local competiton back rather than forward. It has turned into a contest for average looking girls who dont really stand a great chance to win internationally. I hope that this franchise holder learns to pick the right girls or give up the franchise next year. I wish Peter Elias could come back.
