I encourage you to take a look at Anje Mae Escara Manipol and her potentials for transformation in Miss Universe Philippines 2023. This morena beauty is, first and foremost, an advocacy-centered aspirant who completed her first national pageant assignment during Miss World Philippines 2022. Aside from making it to the Top 20 of the competition, she was also adjudged one of two BWAP (Beauty With A Purpose) winners. Her cause? Sustainable Agriculture.

A Licensed Agriculturist, Anje Mae wants to continue being the voice of local farmers not only in Quezon Province, but in the entire Philippines if possible. She may still fall short of the sophistication most every pageant fan is looking for. But that can be gradually trained. Her inner beauty is non-negotiable. It is something that she possesses that will help put across her message more clearly – and hopefully with more spontaneity.

Catch Anje Mae once she finally embarks on her biggest pageant journey in MUPH2023.
