00:00Masculinity with responsibility, that's the distinctive tagline of a prestigious international male pageant
00:06the Man of the World. And here, it's not just physical appearance that's the battle,
00:11but also the presence of integrity, leadership, and compassion.
00:15You're right there, Dayan. That's why we'll get to know some of the candidates of Man of the World 2024
00:20from the country of Cote d'Ivoire, Dizar Kowasi, and of course, our very own Ken Kabonka.
00:28Good morning, welcome to Rise and Shine Philippines. Good morning.
00:33Alright, good luck with your upcoming competition, but of course, we want to know you more.
00:38What are your advocacies for joining Man of the World?
00:44Me first? What's your advocacy?
00:47Okay, I really want to talk more about diversity and cultural stuff because for me, I think diversity is
00:54something very important that we should look into it. And I think Man of the World is a great platform for me to
01:01talk about my culture, showcase our talent, talk about our culture, and show the beauty,
01:09all the beauty that we have there in our country, and the beauty of my community and my culture.
01:15We're not too familiar with Cote d'Ivoire country, and what can we expect when we go there in your
01:21country? What are you most proud of about your country?
01:24Okay, my country previously, I think you know it under the name of Ivory Coast.
01:28Ivory Coast, yes, is a French-speaking country located in the west part of Africa.
01:34So, my native language is French, actually.
01:36Yes, and um...
01:46Yes, so yeah, my native language is French, actually, and English is my second language.
01:51And Cote d'Ivoire is actually the first producer of cocoa beans, so, and cashew nut.
01:57And we're also the African champion of football, 2024.
02:02Okay, all right, let's go to our Pambato.
02:05Of course, Kenneth.
02:24Okay, which sport?
02:28Okay, which part of the country you're physically located?
02:32Which part of the country?
02:33I'm from the city of gentle people.
02:39That helped me finish my course in civil engineering.
02:45I think this advocacy really helped me, sports education.
02:48So, I know that this will also help a lot of people around the world.
02:54But we also want to know, how are your preparations on the upcoming Man of the World 2024?
03:00Let's go with you.

03:07I'm preparing also mentally and morally.
03:09So, yes, it's all the time going to the gym, trying to eat healthy food,
03:15and trying to be in good shape, actually.
03:18So, you're also doing that here in the Philippines.
03:20So, how's Philippines thus far?
03:22So good so far.
03:23I'm still enjoying the Philippines.

05:17Okay, it's a Q&A version.
05:19If you, as a representative of your country,
05:23what is this thing that you like to tell people that they should come to your country?

05:37as I mentioned with the first production of Cocoa Beans.
05:41And also, it's quite similar to the Philippines.
05:44We got a lot of beaches, a lot of good food there as well.

05:51I don't want to tell you more about it.
05:54But come and discover, you will see a lot of things about the culture.
05:57So about gold stuff and those kind of crowns that I'm wearing.
