Yes, the 2005 SEA Games is being hosted by the Philippines

Philippines is a country of beauty pageants. It is an anywhere, anytime event. I can’t imagine a Philippine town fiesta in this country without a beauty contest. More often than not, a beauty competition is the celebration’s highlight.

Yes, QTV-11 has its own website and its HERE. I think the nice comments on my previous post are really meant for that website. (Apparently, if you hit QTV-11 on Google, my earlier post is number 1 on the search list). I cant complain though. :))

No way man, not even for a million $$$!
