Yuriss Tai, a 32-year-old Advanced Open Water diver, departed from Taiwan airport on Nov 10 and arrived at Mabul Water Bungalows Resort to begin intensive pre-pageant activities and training.
During orientation, contestants were given a briefing about their upcoming schedule and learned about the pageant’s history, which strives to celebrate the inner beauty and courage of today’s modern women while advocating worldwide marine conservation.
