Taekwondo expert Vern Domingo voted off "Survivor Philippines"

Friday, November 14, 2008

Taekwondo expert Veronica "Vern" Domingo, considered to be one of the biggest threats in the competition, was voted out in tonight's episode of Survivor Philippines. She became the 10th person to be voted out and the third member of the Jury.

The eight members of the Chalam tribe, the merged tribe of Naak and Jarakay, came to their third Tribal Council to vote out one of their members.

The five remaining members of the Naak tribe—JC Tiuseco, Rob Sy, Cris Cartagenas, Kaye Alipio, and Zita Ortiga—bonded once again and voted against Vern. On the other hand, the three members of the former Jarakay tribe—Vern, Marlon Carmen, and Charisse Yacapin—voted for Rob.

Since Rob was holding the black pearl, which serves as a curse to whoever is holding it, he automatically had one vote. This one vote was added to the three votes of the former Jarakay tribemates. But it fell short of the five votes of the former Naak members.

In her exit interview, Vern said: "Siyempre, medyo nahe-hurt ako. Lumaban ako ng patas, ibinigay ko lahat. Naduwag sila [other castaways] sa talagang kalaban nila."

Vern now joins Jace Flores and Kiko Rustia in the Jury, which will decide who will win the three-million cash prize and the title of the first-ever Pinoy Sole Survivor.
