R U Tough Enough? searching for the SEA’s toughest
Are Filipinos the toughest in Southeast Asia? That is what Fisherman’s Friend and KIX are trying to find out. With the support of Fisherman’s Friend, KIX, is bringing back its annual R U Tough Enough? competition on an even bigger scale this year. Finalists from six countries in Southeast Asia — namely Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam — will be competing for the title of Southeast Asia’s Toughest and a grand prize of $15,000.
Fisherman’s Friend and KIX are seeking male and female participants who have the physical strength, the mental endurance and the emotional resilience to take on contestants from five other countries and prove that he or she is the toughest.
R U Tough Enough? Southeast Asia is accepting applicants until Oct. 15 via its official website www.KIX-TV.com/tough. Applicants can also sign up via Tough Trooper activations in their cities.
R U Tough Enough? has grown in scope, size and participation every year, and now we are excited to take this competition to a regional level,” said Betty Tsui, KIX VP for Programming.
“We are looking for Southeast Asia’s toughest and we are thrilled to invite everyone with an inspiring tough story to join us. It is not just a battle of the body, but also the mind, and we encourage all tough participants to join and show us what they’ve got!”
R U Tough Enough? Southeast Asia is open to all Philippine residents aged 18 and above. To participate, apply online at www.KIX-TV.com/tough by Oct. 15 or at the Tough Trooper roadshows at Metro Manila, Cebu and Pampanga. Shortlisted candidates will be invited for closed-door auditions and a total of four finalists will be chosen to represent the Philippines together with the previous winner Renz Lou Lagria.
