The diva also went on to share a special message on the occasion of World Mental Health Day, “There’s been a significant stigma against individuals with mental health problems and it is vital for each and every one of us to realise how it impacts our daily lives, and we should make it a national priority. It has also not been easy for us to go through these challenges especially during this pandemic”
“I am so honoured to work with Silver Ribbon Organisation Singapore, with a robust support system I want to use my voice to spread the awareness and provide a safe space for individuals especially for others who are unable to afford therapy. To educate the importance of your well-being, your emotions are valid and to be taken care of. I know our strength as a community, and when we work together we can achieve great things,” she added.
The strong, determined and confident diva will head to the Miss World 2021 stage to represent Singapore. The 70th edition of Miss World pageant will be held on 16th December 2021 at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
