What qualifies you to be the first Thomasian Youth Ambassadress?
“I believe that I am an exceptional young woman who does not only possess an outstanding personality but a big heart to serve. I have the dream to inspire and influence other people to strive and bring out the best of themselves every day and I’m more than willing to do and sacrifice things for God’s greater glory.”
How do you value education?
“It goes without saying that education plays such a significant influence in our lives. It is where we can gain knowledge and enlarge our view over the world. Having the chance to go to school is such a wonderful gift for me. So I treat every day as a new opportunity to learn, by not doing things for granted, embracing every bits of it, applying it as I go through life and more importantly, sharing it to others.”
How can you share the light of education to the indigenous people?
“Indigenous people have the equal rights to education as much as we have. By making education accessible to them, not letting their culture be a hindrance to learn, and empowering them to do more of what they can do. I can help share the light of education.”
Why should the Thomasian community vote for you?
“I am a Thomasian who have the willingness and capacity to serve as a mirror for everyone who dreams, who is willing to walk an extra mile to achieve success, who stays steadfast to my principles in life and fears the Lord strongly. Therefore I believe I am worthy of your support.”
