The 23 year old Khmer-French beauty was leading as a favorite since the beginning of the competition. Hailing from Phnom Penh, Manita Hang has established herself as a successful model in Burma. She began her schooling at Lyçée Français René Descartes and graduated from CamEd Business School with a Bachelor of Accounting and Finance degree. She also speaks Khmer, French, and English fluently.

With the national competiton, Manita marked her comeback to pageantry as previously she she represented her country at Miss Tourism Metropolitan International 2016 and placed as the second runner-up. Manita's pageant expertise, mixed ethnicity, and therefore cultural experience, along with her breathtaking beauty, would undoubtedly make her a strong delegate for the international platform.
