For medical tourism

A registered nurse hopes to promote medical tourism in the Philippines as she competes for an international beauty title today.

Isabella Manjon, crowned Bb. Pilipinas-Tourism in April, is representing the country in the Miss Tourism Queen International in Xian, China. The Philippines last bagged the title in 2006, with Justine Gabionza.

Manjon, 25, although told of the pageant only two weeks before her departure, is optimistic about her chances. Armin Adina
