Transcript (courtesy of Rappler):

Miss France: "For me it will be an honor to be Miss World because I appreciate the fact that Miss World travels a lot and meets people in the world and tries to help them."

Miss Philippines: "I treasure a core value of humanity and that guides people why they act the way they do. I will use this to show other people how they can understand each other. ... as one, we can help society."

Miss Ghana: "I believe a Miss World should be someone who is a woman with substance and is compassionate.. with beauty with a purpose.. to make an impact in the lives of women and the less fortunate"

Miss Brazil: "Miss World is a reflection of the values the world should have. It does not only focus on physical beauty, but the sensitivity to help people in need... With Miss World, she's able to help many people. If everybody does their part, we can make this a better world."

Miss Spain: "I will give to those people who really need help, all my energies, all my passion, to make their lives a little bit easier and happier."

Miss Gibraltar: "I believe that I should be the next Miss World because I want to be MW for all the right reasons. I genuinely want to help people in need. I don't want to be MW to get my hair done because those things don't change people lives. Show acts of kindness. Kindness is the language that the deaf can hear, and the blind can see."
