Ang Aking Dalawang Centimos Sa Miss Universe 2016 (My Two Cents on the Miss Universe 2016)

From Wikipedia: " My two cents " (" my 2¢ ") and its longer version " put my two cents in " is an  American   idiomatic  expression, [1]  taken from the original English idiom " to put in my two cents worth " or " my two-cents ." It is used to preface the tentative statement of one’s opinion. By deprecating the opinion to follow—suggesting its value is only two  cents , a very small amount—the user of the phrase hopes to lessen the impact of a possibly contentious statement, showing  politeness  and  humility . Sa kasalukuyang nangyari sa Pilipinas ngayong taon patungkol sa mga isyu sa Miss Universe, gusto ko sanang ibahagi ang aking "Isang Centimo para sa aking mga saloobin". (Due to the current event in the Philippines this year regarding the issue of Miss Universe, I want to give or share "a Cent for my Thoughts.") Una sa lahat, ako ay hindi naman talaga isang tagapaghanga ng kompetisyon na ito.
