Application Process

Did you feel guided and supported through the process and expectations adequately? To the best of your knowledge, were all contestants treated equally?

I did until the end and no not all contestants were treated equally.

Franchise/Directors/Organisers

Professionalism, contracts, fees, treatment of contestants, discrimination, financial responsibilities, prizes, are they motivated correctly, etc.

Fees were high, there bullying me into trying to sign a contract that happened 5 weeks after the pageant otherwise they're threatening to revoke my title especially in public.

Empowerment

This experience increased/decreased my self confidence, my sense of purpose, my capacity to dream bigger, and my propensity to lead others to their inner greatness.

It was fine in the beginning until they pulled out a contract that I'm refusing to sign and now there harassing me and threatening to revoke my title especially in public if I don't co-operate.
