Maswerte ang makakakuha ng Miss World Philippines title this year dahil siya ang unang makakapagsuot ng bagong korona na ang tawag ay “Ray of Hope” na gawa ng Oro China Jewelry.

At speaking of winner, nauna nang nabanggit ni reigning Miss World Philippines Gwendolyne Fourniol sa interview ng INQUIRER.net ang ilan sa mga katangian na hinahanap niya sa magiging successor niya.

“I want a woman who is empowered, who is also empowering those around her, and will never forget that even after she is crowned, or even if she isn’t crowned,” sey ng Frensh-Filipino beauty queen.

Dagdag pa niya, “Of course, it’s generations of legacy that I’ll be passing on, and I want someone who is well-rounded, someone who has all the abilities, someone who can take that responsibility, not just for herself, but for the community that is around her.”

Bukod sa nasabing titulo, kaabang-abang din kung sino ang mananalo bilang Reina Hispanoamericana Filipinas at Miss Philippines Tourism.
