Aabante ang Palawan sa Miss Philippines Earth na irerepresenta ni Miss Reyna Michelle Ubani Ruhen, 24 taong gulang, dating Mutya ng Palawan at kasalukuyang hawak ang titulo ng Bb. MIMAROPA.
Ayon sa post sa kanyang Facebook page ay anim na taon na umano siyang hiatus sa pageantry, dahil dito marami siyang natutunan at napagtagumpayan, isa na rito ang pagtapos sa kanyang degree at paglilingkod sa publiko.
“It has already been six long years since I joined beauty pageants. In my hiatus, I have learned numerous valuable lessons in life and achieved significant milestones such as finishing my degree and becoming a public servant in our community,” ani ni Miss Ruhen sa kanyang post.
“What I did, was not basically to give myself a break, but to further equip myself with the necessary knowledge and skills to the craft I am passionate about. During this time, I was also able to muster strength, determination, and diligence in achieving my dreams and living the advocacies I have since been championing from the moment I joined the world of pageantry” dagdag pa niya.
Muli, dala-dala niya ang kanyang adbokasiya na konserbasyon at pagpreserba ng kalikasan at kapaligiran.
