PRIME Minister Jeremiah Manele says pageant contestants represent the resiliency spirit of Pacific Island women.
Manele stressed that that they are sending a “powerful message” to the world, demonstrating Pacific Island women as strong, intelligent, talented, industrious and “ambassadors of our people, our countries and our region.”
He said Pacific Islands women are always ready to lead when facing challenges.
“Your courage, your commitment and your vision for a better Pacific will inspire those around you to believe in their own power to create change,” he said.
“You stand for what you believe in,” Manele added.
He said that the country takes pride in playing a part in nurturing the potential of women across the Pacific.
“We are here to support you, not only during this pageant show or contest, but in your future endeavors in whatever way we can. Our government is committed to fostering an environment where young women can rise, achieve and contribute to our shared progress in the Pacific,” he added.
