Miss Thawda San, who will represent Myanmar at the Miss Earth 2024 competition in the Philippines on 9 November, departed Yangon for Manila on the morning of 21 October.
“Since I participated in the Miss Universe Myanmar competition, I’ve been preparing for this event, including practising my catwalk. I feel about 99 per cent confident competing. I’ve prepared traditional Myanmar attire and cultural elements to showcase on the international stage. My biggest concern is that I couldn’t represent Myanmar’s culture and heritage at Miss Earth fully, but I will do my best,” she said.
