Chile was supposed to host the 2006 Miss Earth pageant, but because some requirements were not fulfilled by the organizers in Chile. “The Chilean organizers could not confirm the venue of the pageant, hotel accommodations for the participants and the television station that would broadcast the event.” explained Carousel project director Peachy Veneracion.
