Binibining Pilipinas International Ahtisa Manalo is set to to conquer the international stage as she flies to Japan to bring home the country’s seventh Miss International title.
The 21-year-old beauty queen shared on Thursday a photo of herself at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) posing with a Philippine flag in an Instagram story.
Manalo will be competing for the Miss International 2018 title at the Tokyo Dome City Hall on November 9.
She also posted a snapshot of a simple note with message: “This is for you, Philippines.”
Manalo previously assured the country of its seventh Miss International title during her send-off party last Oct. 11 at Novotel Manila Araneta Center.
“I’m not gonna go to Japan just to be the second best,” she declared. /muf
